The most important thing is that Nurhachi feels that Wei Bao is just a local power.

Wei Bao himself is just a lord, what qualifications do you have to surrender yourself, surrendering Wei Bao by yourself is equivalent to the slave of the Ming minions, right?

Anyway, Nurhachi couldn't figure out the power of Wei Bao, why he still attached himself to the Ming court and became a minion.

So, that night, Nurhachi summoned Cong Gulen Gege and made a request that surprised Cong Gulen Gege.

"I decided to let Lang Zhong of the Heaven and Earth Society heal me. But now you go and invite the envoys of the Heaven and Earth Society, I want to propose to them in person, and ask Wei Bao to swear to be the Khan of Heaven and become the co-lord of the northern tribes, so that I can negotiate peace with them. I, the Great Golden Kingdom, am willing to recognize the Heaven and Earth Society as the Lord. Nurhachi said to Cong Gurenge.

Cong Gulen Gegeqi said: "Father Khan, if we are willing to negotiate peace and surrender to the treasure army, why should Wei Bao swear to be called the Khan of Heaven?" Isn't Wei Bao going to rebel against the Ming Court? Does Wei Bao's loyalty to the Ming Court have anything to do with us? ”

"Naturally, it has a relationship, if Wei Bao himself is not a person who counts, then we have one more Ming court on our heads, those dignitaries and nobles in the Ming court, the capricious royal family, I have had enough! Moreover, with the relationship of the Ming Court, Wei Bao can find many excuses to oppress us in the future, such as finding excuses to ask us for silver at every turn in the future, he can say that it is not his meaning, it is the meaning of the Ming Court, should we listen to it? Nurhachi said with great difficulty: "Also, Wei Bao himself is only an official of the Ming Court now, even if Wei Bao's status is already the same as Li Chengliang back then, but Wei Bao's prestige cannot be compared with Li Chengliang." I can bow my head to Wei Bao, but what do you make the rest of us think if we let our entire Dajin go to such a person who is only sixteen years old or an official of the Ming Court? My Daikin is likely to fall apart. ”

Cong Gulen Gege now understands what his father Khan meant, Wei Bao's prestige is too low, if he really bows his head to Wei Bao, Wei Bao only knows how to ask for it, and there is nothing that can be given to Dajin Guo, so why bow his head?

Now Wei Bao is just relying on me, and his force is far higher than that of the Manchurians, and I can beat the Manchurians whenever I want.

In that case, it's a big deal that Daikin will strengthen its defense in the future, and if you don't come out, if you want to eat so many major cities in Dajin, you have to knock out your teeth one by one, and it's impossible without years of hard work!

Therefore, although Wei Bao has repeatedly threatened, Houjin is not very afraid of the Bao army.

This time, Nurhachi himself took the initiative to send it to the door.

Nurhachi now regrets this trip and lost all his family.

Moreover, in the course of the specific battle, he was extremely uncalm.

Nurhachi now had no doubts about Wei Bao's talent.

Even Wei Bao has actually become famous all over the world in the entire Ming Dynasty, and no one will doubt Wei Bao's talent.

Although Wei Bao is unscrupulous and relies on various tricks, Wei Bao does not even have the level of a child, but he relies on scientific examinations step by step, and has won the title of Tanhualang on the gold list, and he has risen step by step in the officialdom.

It was originally unconvincing, but Wei Bao's series of battle victories in Liaodong were enough to become Wei Bao's capital.

It's just that Wei Bao's age is too young, unless there is such a merit as completely beating Jiannu down and making Jiannu surrender, so that Wei Bao is already a member of the second grade at the age of sixteen, which can be convincing, otherwise, youth is always a hard injury.

Nurhachi even felt that if Wei Bao had been replaced by Wei Bao to command the Battle of Sarhu in the Wanli period, this battle might not have been fought in the place of Sarhu, nor would it have been fought in this form of the Battle of Sarhu.

Nurhachi made such a judgment in combination with the characteristics of Wei Bao's military thought.

The soldiers of the Later Jin army were born in fishing, hunting, and nomadic peoples, and their combat effectiveness was naturally fierce, but after Nurhachi announced the so-called "Seven Hatreds" and swore to defeat the Ming Dynasty, the decisive factor in Nurhachi's victory in quite a few important battles was because he was good at using stratagem, especially good at using camouflage raids, treacherous disguises, and internal and external tricks, and did not rely on the so-called Eight Banners to win the battle.

Two important battles that took place before the Battle of Salhu, the Battle of Fushun and the Battle of Qinghe.

Fushun City is located on the bank of the Hunhe River, is the place where the Ming and Jurchen exchanged markets, because Nurhachi was engaged in trading activities in Fushun when he was young, so he knows the situation of Fushun City well, and the guard general guerrilla Li Yongfang also knew Nurhachi.

On the same day, Nurhachi sent people to Fushun to inform him that a large Jurchen caravan of 3,000 men had come to Fushun to trade the next day.

On the 15th, the Houjin vanguard troops pretending to be merchants came to Fushun City, and the Fushun soldiers and civilians went to trade outside the city, at this time Nurhachi's army suddenly arrived, and the Houjin army in Fushun City should join forces to attack Fushun in one fell swoop, and the Chinese army Qianzong Wang Mingyin, the general Wang Xuedao, Tang Keyshun and other battles were killed, and Li Yongfang surrendered.

Qinghe City is surrounded by mountains on all sides, the terrain is steep, the strategic location is important, the road can go straight to the important town of Liaoyang, Shenyang, is the barrier of Liaoshen, the general Zou Chuxian, the guerrilla Zhang Min of Liao led 10,000 troops to guard this place.

Nurhachi ordered a cart full of mink and ginseng in front, and the sergeant ambushed behind the car and suddenly killed, trying to see the poor dagger, killing the Qinghe defenders by surprise.

However, due to the firearms on Qinghe City, the Later Jin army attacked the city and killed and wounded more than 1,000 people, and Zhang Min, a Ming guerrilla, was also killed.

Nurhachi then ordered his soldiers to dig a wall under the city with planks on top of them, and the Jin army broke through the gap into the city.

Nurhachi ordered Li Yongfang to persuade Zou Chuxian to surrender, but Chu Xian scolded angrily, and then led the army to resist the Houjin army in the city, and died of exhaustion.

The deputy general He Shixian led the Ming Dynasty reinforcements to arrive, and when he saw that the city had fallen, he beheaded 150 women and children in the nearby Jurchen Tunzhai and returned.

It can be seen that Nurhachi is not the kind of minority reckless general who can only shoot and kill, but a military strategist who is very good at using strategy and strategy.

If Nurhachi was just a reckless man, he would never have achieved such great military achievements.

Before Nurhachi, there were also many heroes of the Manchu and Mongolian tribes, but there were basically no people like Nurhachi who were proficient in the art of war.

The art of war not only refers to the details such as what types of troops should be used in what terrain, how to camp and how to line up, but more importantly, the overall situation of "going to the army and strategizing" mentioned in the "Art of War".

A military ideology that can achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost, especially when there is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and the enemy.

Nurhachi has now been subdued by Wei Bao's resourcefulness, especially military intelligence, and it seems that every move on his side is under Wei Bao's control.

Although Nurhachi didn't know how Wei Bao did it, he was sure that Wei Bao had a lot of infiltration into the Jin Kingdom and could deliver the news smoothly.

This time, the Bao army appeared in Ningyuan City, which was too terrifying for Nurhachi.

Because before Nurhachi sent troops, he also had intelligence reconnaissance through multiple channels.

Nurhachi was even very clear about the layout, direction, and approximate military numbers of the Ming and Bao armies in the entire Liaoxi and Liaodong.

It can only be said that Nurhachi's news was received one step slower, and the transmission was also one step slower, and it was also one step slower in terms of the army's logistical supply.

Although most of the Eight Banners are cavalry, they don't need to prepare much, where they want to fight, and they can leave after preparing for a day or two, which is already very fast.

But the treasure army is faster and can go at any time.

Moreover, the treasure army has always had a good logistics support system, and it can fight as long as it wants, and it can also fight quickly if it wants to, so the tactics are flexible and changeable.

Jiannu is not good, Jiannu generally only goes out with a few days of dry food, if you play the tailwind game, you can grab something to eat, grab a lot of gold and silver, the headwind bureau will not work.

If you forcibly fight a tough battle, let alone a few thousand treasure troops defending the city, this time it is one or two thousand Ming troops defending the city, as long as the defenders can unite the generals and inspire the morale of the soldiers, it will be difficult for the 60,000 or 70,000 people in Houjin to take advantage.

Just like Yuan Chonghuan in the original history successfully organized the Battle of Ningyuan.

Nurhachi thought a lot before summoning Cong Gurangeg to say what he wanted to summon.

Nurhachi felt that correct information is the basis for making correct strategic decisions, and it is impossible to overstate how important these two points are to victory or defeat on the battlefield.

In the battle of Salhu, Yang Hao deliberately sent someone to inform Nurhachi that the 470,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty would enter on the 28th, intimidate Houjin and deliberately confuse Nurhachi on the date.

However, the Ming Dynasty's Houjin spies were widely distributed, and even the Jingshi Mansion newspaper could be copied, so the Houjin side had already found out when the Ming army would leave.

For the Ming Dynasty's four-way army, Nurhachi said, "I will only go all the way to the Ming Dynasty", concentrated the superior forces, withdrew the defenders of the cantonment to Hetuala, and judged that the Ming army would definitely come from the west first.

It can be seen that Yang Hao, the commander of the Sarhu Campaign, did not know how to use deception, but the crux of the problem was that he did not fully understand that Nurhachi was more informed than his own information channels, nor did he fully realize the objective fact that "Houjin spies were widely distributed".

If Wei Bao is allowed to come at this point, Houjin will have no advantage at all, and it can even be said to be a complete disadvantage, Nurhachi can't admire Wei Bao's meticulous work now.

Nurhachi even suspected that he was talking to his son and daughter in private, and it was possible that Wei Bao would know about it in two days, making Nurhachi suspicious all day long.

Nurhachi felt that if it was Wei Bao who commanded the Ming army in the Battle of Sarhu, it would have done much better than Yang Hao.

And more importantly, if you assume that Sarhu was the first battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin, it is reasonable to say that you did not understand the enemy's combat characteristics and led to defeat.

But at that time, the lessons of the two battles of Fushun and Qinghe were obviously already in the past, but the Ming army that fought Salhu still did not pay attention to this lesson, which was very undeserved.

In Nurhachi's view, before launching a campaign, Wei Bao fully studied the lessons of his previous failures, and did his best to understand the various objective situations of both the enemy and us, and objectively analyzed the lessons of the failures of his predecessors.

Today, Nurhachi judged that Wei Bao no longer regarded Jin Guo as an opponent, on the one hand, he was disheartened, and on the other hand, he was indeed beaten by Wei Bao without temper and self-confidence.

In fact, not to mention Wei Bao, even Yuan Chonghuan fully learned the lessons of his predecessors before the Battle of Ningyuan.

The walls are clear and the wilderness is strictly guarded against spies.

Yuan Chonghuan ordered all the houses outside the city to be burned, and the merchants and people in the city were transferred to the city, and the grain was stored on Juehua Island.

and with the same acquaintance Cheng Weiao led the staff to inspect the spies, "the people on the street searched for the spies, and they were exhausted in a short time"; Send all the students to patrol the streets and alleys. In Ningyuan City, there are no "rebels", and there are no spies.

The Later Jin War, first in the Zhucheng cities of eastern Liaodong -- Fushun, Qinghe, Kaiyuan, Tieling, Shenyang, Liaoyang, and Guangning -- were all lost because of the combination of internal and external affairs. And Ning Yuan is the only one who has no traitors who have seized the door, and there are spies who should be inside.

If Wei Bao had personally commanded the Mingjin War, he would have done a better job in information warfare.

In terms of the personnel factor, that is, the question of the quality of the soldiers.

The Battle of Salhu was the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the quality and combat effectiveness of the soldiers were bound to be much lower than those of the Jurchens.

In fact, the Liaodong Army has always been a relatively powerful army in the Ming Army, and it has been fighting with Jiannu for a long time, not to mention half a catty, but it is definitely not without the strength of the First World War, they know Jiannu very well.

How can a person be repeatedly attacked by someone who knows him very well.

What's more, there are words of such a cunning commander as Wei Bao.

Nurhachi even thought that if Wei Bao was directly in command of the Battle of Sarhu that year, the battle would probably be defeated by him.

In Nurhachi's view, Wei Bao is already an excellent military strategist.

Because Wei Bao can fully realize his own weaknesses, and take correct countermeasures, recruiting and training soldiers, only seeking quality, not quantity.

It took Wei Bao more than a year, ranging from a few thousand to only about 10,000 people, to continuously exterminate many bandits in western and eastern Liaoning.

At that time, Wei Bao's army was not only far smaller in number than a few large bandit groups, but also the geographical advantages and people were not in his hands.

Wei Bao was just an ordinary peasant boy in Liaoxi, which made Nurhachi very disappointed.

When Wei Bao raised his army, the foundation was not as good as Nurhachi's original.

It was under such a disadvantage that Wei Bao correctly used various strategies to improve the unfavorable conditions, turn the disadvantage into an advantage, and create a miracle-like victory.

The Ming army during the Battle of Salhu also valued quantity and ignored quality.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the system of the guards had already existed in name only, and had been converted to a conscription system, and the army was transferred from all over the country in each campaign, and the main force was usually from the important towns of the nine borders, Sichuan and Zhejiang.

The important towns of the nine borders are mainly cavalry, except for Liaodong, Yansui, Ningxia and other feudal towns that often fight with the Mongols, the rest of the border towns have not fought for a long time, so that the army's combat effectiveness is average.

There are quite a few "jumping iron horses" in the nine-sided town.

The cavalry was armed with a large number of firearms.

The battalion consisted of artillery units and cavalry units.

The artillery unit is equipped with various artillery pieces with long range and great power, such as the general cannon, the tiger squat cannon, the Franco machine gun, etc.

The cavalry units attached to the car battalion were equipped with firearms.

However, due to the establishment of the Ming army, which adopted a joint camp of chariots and cavalry, there was no independent cavalry unit, which led to its mobility being far inferior to that of the cavalry troops of the Later Jin.

An excellent military strategist should fully realize that the number of troops is definitely not the key to victory or defeat, but the quality of soldiers.

This made Nurhachi think of another famous general of the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang.

When Qi Jiguang commanded the anti-Japanese soldiers in Zhejiang and Fujian, he also saw the shortcomings of the guards who were eating and waiting for death, fearing the Japanese like tigers, and collapsing at the first touch.

Qi Jiguang made up his mind to recruit troops from Yiwu, where the people were fierce, and re-worked hard to train the troops, so as to create the Qi family army that later won a hundred battles against the Japanese.

There is a theory in modern corporate management that the best management is not to manage with effort, but to work recruitment. When recruiting, strictly check the quality of the employees who enter the company, then the final team does not need to be managed, and it is naturally a team that can play.

How similar is this management theory to the military thinking we have just introduced.

The organizational form of the campaign, if it was changed to Wei Baolai's passage through Liaodong, it is likely that the decisive battle between the Ming army and the Later Jin army would not have taken place in Sarhu.

Because Wei Bao's military thinking has always been to pay attention to the use of various means to avoid the real and attack the false.

Nurhachi studied several examples of Wei Bao's anti-bandit battles, and Nurhachi found that often the bandits felt that it was impossible to have a time and place for the Bao army to attack, so he sent surprise troops to attack.

And at the time and place when and where the bandits were on full guard, he would certainly not appear.

This point was even clearer in the entire course of Wei Bao's battle against Huang Taiji in southern Liaoning, where tens of thousands of elite Eight Banner soldiers were driven away by Wei Bao with hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.

If an army or a country has strengths, it must have weaknesses.

Whoever can protect his weak points and strike at the enemy's vital points in the war will win.

The fundamental reason for the victory of all wars throughout the ages can be summed up in the four words "avoiding the real and attacking the false."

Nurhachi felt that according to Wei Bao's style of employing troops, he was likely to fully study the terrain characteristics of the area under the actual control of the Jin State in advance, and then release reconnaissance to observe the real movements of the Jin army at all times, and then at a relatively empty moment in Hetuala, he sent the main force to directly capture Hetuara by surprise, and then grasped the disheartened fighter of the main force of the Jin army, and turned back to outflank the main force of the Jin army that intercepted the Ming army near Salhu.

In short, at the very least, it is impossible for Wei Bao to come up with a stupid trick like Yang Hao to publicize the date of the expedition and be able to see through his intentions.

Of course, if the Ming army adopts this strategy, Nurhachi, who is also a famous general, will not adopt the original strategy, and will adapt to the situation.

It's just that now Nurhachi is scared of Wei Bao, so he thinks of Wei Bao more and more terrifyingly.

In fact, Wei Bao is really not as powerful as Nurhachi thinks.

Wei Bao's most powerful thing is that he reformed the old-style army, adopted normal politics to manage the army, and managed the entire Tiandihui power group, and Wei Bao's role is mainly reflected in management.

Then there were some improvements to the weapons and ammunition.

As for fighting, Wei Bao personally commanded very few battles, and even Wei Bao himself couldn't remember what battles he had fought.

At most, Wei Bao touched his lips up and down, ordered the troops to fight, and then it was over.

When it is important, or when Wei Bao is in a good mood, he may follow the past to play, many times, Wei Bao is even just in the rear, just like playing a game, placing an order on the map, and then all the generals below play on the spot, and various party and government organs mobilize the people to do a good job of logistics, which has little to do with Wei Bao.

Nurhachi still didn't understand that the Heaven and Earth Society itself was already strong enough, and it was already a very sensitive and powerful machine with a strong ability to react.

If someone attacks the area under the rule of the Heaven and Earth Society, and even Wei Bao doesn't have to worry about it, the organization department of the Heaven and Earth Society can quickly come up with a defensive battle plan, and even before the enemy comes, the defense and counter-offensive plans will be launched in advance.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, Wei Bao is powerful, including people inside the Heaven and Earth Society, who are constantly mythologizing the role of Wei Bao, and the hundreds of Zhuge Liang that President Wei said together can't catch up with President Wei's hair.

Only Wei Bao himself knows what level he is.

After listening to Amma's words, Cong Gulen Gege said softly: "Yes, I can ask someone to find the envoy of the treasure army immediately, but, Amma, without further ado, you should heal the disease first." Because the envoys of the Bao army had not received similar instructions from Wei Bao before they came, they certainly did not know how to deal with Amma's intentions, so they could only send the news back. After they send the news back, Wei Bao may have to discuss with many people if he reacts to Amma's words, after all, this is a big deal, and I don't know how long it will take to send it back to us. So, in order not to delay Amma's medical treatment, let's see a doctor first, is it okay? ”

Nurhachi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, see a doctor first." If Wei Bao agrees to my request, he is the Heavenly Khan of the north, and I am loyal to him, and our Jin State is revoked, and it is no longer called Jin State, but still called Jianzhou Jurchens, it doesn't matter. If Wei Bao refuses, then I can't blame him for letting his people treat me in vain, and I can't say that I don't preach morality. He is just an official of the Ming court, he is not a court, and it is impossible for me to bow to him as an official, because it is impossible for me to bow to the Ming court. ”

Cong Gulen Gege was very happy to see that his father Khan finally agreed to treat the disease, and ignored a lot of Nurhachi's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Okay, that's it, Father Khan, then I'll call those Langzhong over now." ”

Nurhachi also seemed to let go of the big burden in his heart and smiled slightly.

As a result, several Baojun military doctors treated Nurhachi overnight, giving injections, taking medicine, dressings, infusions, and repeated operations.

Before dawn, Nurhachi's condition improved significantly.

This is mainly because Nurhachi's physical fitness is very strong, and history has not died so quickly.

Nurhachi was mainly angry this time, causing a poisonous attack.

Now that Nurhachi has figured out how to get along with Wei Bao in the future, his condition has been more than half better.

In addition, after the injection of antibiotics, the effect is also obvious, and the suppuration is immediately controlled.

So, at dawn, Nurhachi had fallen asleep and looked much better.

Cong Gulen Gege, Dai Shan, Huang Taiji and others all breathed a sigh of relief.
