Chapter 19 Fan Wencheng borrows the way
In order to completely confuse Jiannu, Liu Xingzuo gathered all the condemned prisoners in Nansiwei before the end of September, and promised them that if they could survive three battles, they would be spared death. He also organized it into a separate army with the die-hard elements of Jiannu, and ordered him to be the vanguard.
And in Daming, Sun Guozhen, the governor of Denglai, also did the same thing. Similarly, in the Denglai area, a large number of death row prisoners were assembled, and they were organized into a separate army, called the place where thousands of households dared to die, promising to cut off one of the enemy's heads to avoid death, and those who cut three of them would not only avoid death, but also be rewarded for meritorious deeds. For a time, Fuzhou and Denglai areas were all dancing with demons.
That is, on the third day of October, Liu Xingzuo sacrificed the flag and raised troops to attack Ming.
On the fourth day of the first month of October, Liu Xingzuo's troops landed in Denglai, the momentum was huge, the defenders of Denglai were cowardly, only the newly formed thousands of households dared to fight, and several times they retreated Liu Xingzuo's troops in a decisive charge. It's just that the two sides have been fighting for a long time and have suffered heavy casualties.
Sun Guozhen, the governor of Denglai, ordered the soldiers of the Denglai guards in various places to gather in Denglai on the grounds that the thieves were difficult to defend, and sent someone to notify Mao Wenlong of Dongjiang Town, so that Mao Wenlong's troops would go forward and put pressure on Liu Xingzuo's army, so that they would not dare to go out with the whole army.
Just after Liu Xingzuo, in accordance with the instructions of Emperor Chongzhen, staged a drama of "Fa Ming's burial of his mother" in perfect conjunction with Sun Guozhen, a secret report about Liu Xingzuo's dispatch of troops to "Fa Ming" was also placed on Huang Taiji and his desk: "On October 2, Liu Aita was sent to death row in prison and filled into the front line of the army, and the army was all devoted to the Han slaves of Dajin.
On October 3, Liu Aita sacrificed the flag and raised troops. Cross the sea and go straight to Denglai.
On October 4, he broke the Denglai Naval Division and the guard, beheaded more than 300 people, and the rest were all defeated.
Sun Guozhen, the governor of Denglai, did not dare to fight, gathered the guards of Denglai and asked for help from the barbarians. ”
Huang Taiji was overjoyed after reading the secret report on October 4, and immediately summoned Fan Wencheng and Dai Shan to discuss politics.
After everyone saluted, Huang Taiji was the first to speak: "Now that I have received a secret report from the spies, Liu Aita has sent troops to Denglai, and he has already exchanged hands with the barbarians. Now more than 300 have been beheaded, more than 2,000 have been captured, and the rest of the barbarians have been scattered countless times. Now it has been determined that Liu Aita is sincere and not colluding. Ben Khan decided that we would also send troops, make a detour through Mongolia, and attack the barbarian Jingshi! ”
Before Zhu Jiannu could speak, the dog traitor Fan Wencheng said happily: "The Great Khan is wise! If the barbarian Jingshi is broken this time, the barbarian north will all fall into the hands of my Dajin, and the unfulfilled wishes of the old Khan will be realized in the hands of the Great Khan! Slaves congratulate the Great Khan! ”
"Good! Good! Good! Huang Taiji said happily: "This dog slave can speak, and Ben Khan is rewarded!" ”
Huang Taiji said to Dai Shan again: "What Ben Khan explained before, how did the eldest brother prepare?" ”
Dai Shan bowed and saluted: "Back to the Great Khan, the slaves have already been prepared. ”
When Huang Taiji heard this, he said to Amin Ji, Dolgon, and Haoge: "Haoge, you lead 5,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard, collect the Mongol tribes on the road, and order them to send troops to besiege all the places north of the barbarians, so that they cannot send troops to serve the king.
Amin's brother led 10,000 troops to the left route army to guard against the barbarians of Shanhaiguan and Ningjin.
Dolgon led 10,000 as the right army to protect the right flank of the army, and at the same time sent people to contact Datong, asking them to prepare more weapons, grain and grass, and Ben Khan gave them an extra price this time.
Ben Khan led 20,000 for the Chinese army, and the eldest brother led 5,000 soldiers and horses for the rear army to protect the rear road of our army, and there must be no loss! After the Jiannu went down to prepare, Huang Taiji said to Fan Wencheng again: "Good slave, you will follow Ben Khan's middle army, and Ben Khan will take you to the barbarian capital with you!" ”
Fan Wencheng immediately rejoiced: "Tsk! Minions take orders! ”
Huang Taiji said again: You go to Mongolia for Ben Khan, communicate with Lin Dan Khan, and see if he can get out of the way. If you can let Ben Khan call the shots, you can divide the benefits of looting in Han land into two layers for him! ”
Fan Wencheng said: "Oh, the slave is going to run." Although Lin Dan Khan has the ambition to restore the hegemony of his ancestors, if he encounters my golden gold, he can only cry out in vain. ”
After Fan Wencheng retired, he didn't go home - most of them were there anyway. Even if Hauge is not there, there is a possibility that Dodor will be there. Therefore, he directly called his entourage and rode to the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan.
On the sixth day of October, Fan Wencheng went to Lin Dan Khan to ask for a meeting.
Lin Danhan was very curious, Fan Wencheng was a Confucian student, he had already been admitted to Xiucai, and he was already a member of the privileged class of the Ming Dynasty, but he was willing to be a lackey of Jiannu, so he took a closer look at Fan Wencheng, but saw that he was dressed as a Confucian student, tall and mighty, not like a scholar, but more like a tiger general. Lin Dan Khan muttered in his heart, secretly saying that this scholar really doesn't have a good thing!
Lin Dan Khan is observing Fan Wencheng, why is Fan Wencheng not observing Lin Dan Khan? Although the thirty-six-year-old Lin Dan Khan is well maintained, the wind and frost on the Mongolian steppe still leave the marks of time on his face, even though he is only thirty-six years old, he looks like he is in his forties.
Fan Wencheng was not polite, and said to Lin Dan Khan: "Great Khan, now that the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty has ascended the throne, he is not reliable at all. As soon as my golden soldiers arrive, it is estimated that the little emperor will be scared to pee! Why don't the Great Khan submit to my Dajin, it's better than to suffer here? ”
Lin Danhan's face flashed with gloom, and he said, "If Mr. Fan is here to persuade him to surrender, then there is no need to talk about it." Please come back! ”
Seeing this, Fan Wencheng said: "Since the Great Khan is unwilling, the students can't force it. It's just that my Dajin Xiong soldiers have been sent, and I just hope that the Great Khan can open a road, you and me, the well water does not interfere with the river water, how about it? ”
Lin Danhan feigned anger and said: "Not how! Since Ben Khan is allied with the Ming Dynasty, how can he easily betray it? You have a lot of soldiers, but my Great Mongolia is not the dough that you can knead and knead! ”
Fan Wencheng secretly scolded Lin Dan Khan for being brainless, but he also knew that Lin Dan Khan was not unwilling to give way, it was just a matter of the size of the chips. Thinking of the bottom line that Huang Taiji gave himself, he said: "In this case, the students can call the shots, how about this time I got Dajin in Han and gave it to Da Khan in one layer?" ”
Lin Danhan squinted at Fan Wencheng and said, "Mr. Fan, you and I are not those three-year-old children. One floor? What about you sending Hanako? Three layers, one point less, and you will rest and pass from Ben Khan. ”
Fan Wencheng scolded again in his heart, he was really unhappy that the Lin Dan Khan lion opened his mouth, but his face showed embarrassment and said: "Great Khan, how can a student and a scholar allow three and a half layers of benefits?" When I came, my Khan had already told the students, one and a half layers, but no more! ”
Lin Dan Khan said: "Mr. Fan, if Ben Khan gets out of the way and gives you a lot of gold, you must know that this king is infamous, and Ben Khan's reputation is only worth that half?" Ben Khan is not embarrassed sir, please go back and report to Huang Taiji to know, two and a half layers, absolutely no less! ”
After another bargaining, the two sides finally agreed that the proceeds of Jiannu's plundering from the Han land would be divided into two layers for Lin Dan Khan, and Lin Dan Khan would lead his people to retreat fifty miles and make way for Jiannu to make way for Jiannu to go south with peace of mind.
Fan Wencheng returned to report to the emperor Taiji and did not mention it, but after Fan Wencheng left, Lin Dan Khan hurriedly summoned the envoys of the Ming Dynasty and asked, "Is this really what your Ming Emperor decided?" You must know that Ben Khan gets out of the way, and then Jiannuke will go straight to the capital! ”
The messenger said proudly: "Rest assured, the Great Khan, the Son of Heaven has already prepared. As long as Lin Dan Khan intercepted Jiannu's way back, it would be fine. My big tomorrow is Chrysostom Yuyan, and I will definitely open the mutual market again, and you and I can also form an alliance forever! ”
