Chapter 419: Soldiers besiege Daling City

Huang Taiji, who was very worried about Emperor Chongzhen, was also thinking about how to change the current situation at this time, and then go to scare the dog emperor of the Ming Kingdom.

It is better to let the Dog Emperor admit his dominance in Liaodong, otherwise, there will always be a feeling of injustice.

After thinking about it for a long time, Huang Taiji suddenly realized that it was all the trouble left by the dead Nurhachi.

Look at this broken absence, what kind of Eight Kings are playing? Ben Khan's own rights should be divided among eight people, and if these eight people get together, they can still remove Ben Khan?

Mother, this is wrong, it has to be changed.

And Huang Taiji, who felt that he had a red-clothed cannon in his hand, thought that his guy was hard enough, and there was no reason why he should clean up and then go and destroy the dog emperor.

Therefore, Huang Taiji simply summoned Daishan, Amin, Mang Gurtai, Azig, Dolgon, Duoduo, and Zilharang together to study the restructuring.

In fact, the so-called discussion is basically Huang Taiji's Yiyantang.

Dai Shan and Huang Taiji didn't deal with each other, but after being put together by Dolgon, Dai Shan hated Dolgon, and the two gradually became suspicious, so they were already on the same footing.

Not to mention Amin, as the commander of the Jianzhou capital of the Ming Dynasty, although he has been secretly unable to see the light, but Amin feels that a barbarian like Huang Taiji can toss as much as he wants, and he just needs to report the news to the Ming court, and he doesn't have to worry about the rest.

As for Azig and Dordor, they are on Dolgon's side, and even if Dolgon wants to rebel now, the two will not hesitate to rebel.

And Dolgon was temporarily involved with Huang Taiji because of Bumu Butai's relationship.

Zilharang is the sixth son of Shu and Haqi, and he should be the closest to Amin, but in fact, Zilharang has lived in Nurhachi's palace since he was a child and was raised by Nurhachi.

Therefore, Zilharang has a good relationship with Nurhachi's sons, especially the relationship with Huang Taiji, and the relationship with Amin is average.

It is precisely because of this that Zilharang will rebel with his eldest son Altuna and the third son Zasak, Shulhaqi was imprisoned until death, and Altuna and Zasaktu continued to be trusted and reused after they were killed.

And the most unlucky of them all should be Amin.

Inexplicably, he was almost killed by the old slave Nurhachi, and later even if Huang Taiji and others insisted on interceding in order to buy people's hearts, half of the family property was confiscated by the old slave.

So when Amin came into contact with the Jinyi Wei of the Ming Dynasty, he immediately fell to the Ming Dynasty - anyway, Jiannu's own life is not good, Huangtai Ji is too far worse than the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it is very cost-effective to get together with the Ming Dynasty and realize the last wish of his dead father.

As for Mang Gurtai, although he has been unhappy with Huang Taiji for a long time, he has been suppressed to death, so he can not open his mouth without opening his mouth - tossing with Huang Taiji's dog thing.

Except for Dai Shan and Mang Gurtai, who are of the same mind, and they are all unhappy with Huang Taiji, the rest of the people have their own small abacus, but in the end, no one objected.

Under these circumstances, Huang Taiji's proposal for restructuring was quickly passed—following the Han official system, setting up a household department, a ritual department, a military department, a criminal department, and a ministry of industry.

Only on the matter of the Ministry of Officials, except for Huang Taiji, several other people expressed their opposition - the Ministry of Officials is in charge of officials, and the current officials are the people of each banner owner.

If Huang Taiji really gets the matter of the officials done, if he doesn't mix sand with his own banner, it will be a hell of a thing.

In the end, the six departments became five, and it became a bit nondescript - there was no Shangshu position, and several Baylors were in charge of the ministry.

Each ministry is set up to undertake the government - Mongolia and Han Chengzheng, and then set up eight members to participate in politics, Qixinlang and a number of pen stickers.

It is equivalent to the Jianzhou Jurchen master, and the Mongolian Chengzheng and the Han Chengzheng are part-time workers.

Of course, in Huang Taiji's opinion, such an arrangement must be no problem - do you want to let your Han people take care of the affairs of the ministry just now?

It's a big joke in the world - when did the slave also want to be on a par with the master?

After the matter of the official system and the "Five Ministries" was decided, Huang Taiji spoke again: "Ben Khan heard that the barbarians of the Ming Kingdom are going to build Dalinghe City in Gutun? ”

Amin laughed and said, "The Great Khan wants to get rid of this city? Minions, please be the vanguard! ”

Huang Taiji smiled and said, "What's the hurry, let them cultivate first." At this time, wouldn't it be a pity if the Ming barbarians simply gave up and didn't cultivate? When they are almost done, let's besiege Daling City again and fight the barbarian reinforcements. ”

When Amin heard this, his heart suddenly became entangled, and he just bowed down and said, "The Great Khan is wise." ”

Huang Taiji continued: "According to the news received by Ben Khan, although those barbarians plan to build Daling City, they have not started construction yet, so they are not in a hurry now, and wait for them to repair it first, and the top priority now is to find out who is in charge of this matter on their side." ”

In fact, there is no need to be so troublesome as Huang Taiji thought, because Sun Chengzong has no intention of keeping this matter secret.

Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, felt that he should build cities in Guangning, Yizhou, and Youtun, whether it was Jiannu attacking or taking the initiative to send troops to scold Jiannu, so there were three nails staring at Jiannu.

Sun Chengzong felt that Guangning was too far away, and he should first build Daling City in Gutun, and then move forward step by step.

I have to say that Sun Chengzong has returned to the old routine in the original history - step by step, gradually encroaching, squeezing the living space of Jiannu little by little, and then pushing it over in a wave of leveling, completely killing Jiannu.

In fact, this strategy cannot be said to be wrong, and it can even be said to be the strategy with the least casualties - but it is too expensive.

If it is said that when Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di was still alive, or even during the Zhengde period, there was no pressure on the implementation of this strategy.

After all, at that time, the Ming court had silver and an army that could fight, so it was not too easy to do this.

But in fact, Sun Chengzong proposed this strategy during the Apocalypse.

At that time, there was already chaos in various places, and natural disasters basically happened every year, and Wei Zhongxian's desperate money was not enough, not to mention such a money-burning strategy in Liaodong.

So Sun Chengzong could only be brought home by Lao Wei - he really couldn't afford to burn that money.

As for now, Sun Chengzong feels that the treasury should be rich, at least this military salary has always been not lacking, and it will not be delayed in a day.

Since the treasury has money, what else is there to say, just start repairing the city, and then cannibalize the Jiannu?

A hilarious scene appeared.

Originally, in history, Daling City was started in July of the fourth year of Chongzhen, and when it was almost finished, the construction was stopped, and then the slave soldiers surrounded Daling City.

Now it is Daling City that started construction in April of the fourth year of Chongzhen, and it was targeted by Jiannu as soon as it was built.

It's just that Huang Taiji didn't expect that he would lead his troops to surround him when he was more than halfway through Daling City, but he still didn't build the city as fast as Daling City - even the defenders at the head of the city were shooting at him while strengthening the city defense.

In Daling City, Zu Dashou had already fallen into a state of rage: "Damn, Lao Tzu said that those civil officials are, now look at it, what has become of it?!" ”

He Kegang persuaded: "Why should the handsome do anything? It's better to hold on for a while, and reinforcements will always arrive. ”

Zu Dashou said sullenly: "What if the reinforcements arrive?" Do you fight a field war with Jiannu? Don't say it's me, how much can you believe it? ”

He Kegang smiled bitterly.

He and the others originally built Daling City, and they brought a lot of supplies - but they didn't bring much food, and they all relied on supplies from the rear.

Now it is surrounded by Jiannu, and the ditch dug out by Jiannu on all sides of the entire Daling City, as well as the fence erected to intercept war horses, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is impossible to escape.

And that's not all.

Jiannu also has artillery is the most headache, even if the range and power are not as powerful as the Ming artillery, but there is and no, it is completely different.

At the very least, reinforcements from the Jinzhou direction cannot be counted on.

It would be nice to dig the ditch against the city wall—that would save you from having to go out and dig the moat in the middle of the night.

That's right, Zu Dashou and He Kegang's idea is to defend Daling City to attract Jiannu, so that Sun Chengzong has the opportunity to scare Jiannu for a wave - anyway, if he wants to escape, there is nowhere to escape, so it is better to play a big one.

Once again, the unpredictability of history is on display.

The idea of digging a moat at night was good, and Zu Dashou and He Kegang did the same, but the side effect was something that neither of them expected—there was not enough food in the city.

Deputy General Zhang Cunren squinted at the whites of his eyes, stared at Zu Dashou and He Kegang and said, "There is no food, what's the matter?" ”

Zu Dashou waved his hand and said distraughtly: "What's the matter?" Or do you eat human flesh? Isn't Ben Shuai also uneaten now? Go and go, whatever grass roots and bark can be eaten, eat first, and it is really impossible to slaughter and eat the working cattle. ”

Zhang Cunren retreated, and He Kegang persuaded: "Let's find a way to write to Master Sun, and let his old man hurry up to march is the right thing." ”

He Kegang suddenly stared at Zu Dashou and said, "Great, do you dare to eat human flesh?" ”

Zu Dashou stood up with a sigh and said angrily: "Are you crazy? I don't know what happened to eating human flesh in history, but there have been people who eat human flesh in Shaanxi, haven't you heard of the consequences? ”

He Kegang spread his hands and said with a smile: "You know, isn't it just slaughtering the whole city?" But what if you don't eat human flesh?

Grass roots and tree bark have a day to be eaten, and beef is also eaten a day. As for the cattle in the city, the soldiers are really open to eat, and it is estimated that they will not last a day.

What to do then? The soldiers are starving to death, who will defend this city? ”

Zu Dashou snorted angrily and said: "Don't think about it, let me tell you, eating human flesh is taboo!" As a last resort, you must not eat human flesh! ”

It's just that Zu Dashou didn't expect that this last resort would come so soon.

If you want to say that there is no shortage of weapons in the city, even the ammunition of the artillery is sufficient, even Jiannu has the so-called red-clothed cannon, but relying on the range and power, Dalingcheng can even shoot with Jiannu.

Looking at Jiannu, who retreated after throwing down the corpses of siege soldiers again, He Kegang gritted his teeth and said: "I went out of the city to provoke Jiannu, and the marshal ordered people to prepare and drag Jiannu's corpses back, and it is as much as you can drag back." ”

Zu Dashou shouted angrily: "Fart! Although the food in the city is said to be gone, there is still beef, isn't it? Even if you drink broth, you can last another two days, find another way! ”

After stopping He Kegang, Zu Dashou said: "Wu Xiang, they are also coming soon, no matter how patient they are, Ben Shuai has also drunk broth with the soldiers in the past two days, and he must survive these two days no matter what." ”

As soon as Zu Dashou's words fell, someone in the Jiannu army array rode out of the battle alone, galloped to the city and shouted: "Listen to the city guards, my Great Khan has something to say!" ”

Zu Dashou said with a dark face: "If you have something to say, let it go, and if you persuade you to surrender, you will be saved!" ”

The envoy who rode out of the battle alone was choked by Zu Dashou's words, and after a while he said loudly: "My Great Khan said that as long as the city is surrendered, the high-ranking officials have to be horses and rides, wouldn't it be better to stay in the city?" ”

Zu Dashou's face remained unchanged, and he whispered to He Kegang: "I'll bring him over, you shoot him!" ”

The envoy saw Zu Dashou's mouth open and close, but no sound came, and when he looked at the direction of the wind, he thought that he had not heard Zu Dashou's voice, so he urged the horse to take a few steps forward.

He Kegang didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly, and when the envoy listened to Zu Dashou's mouth full of firewood, he directly took a bow and arrow, and shot straight at the envoy.

Seeing that the envoy was hit by an arrow and fell off his horse, He Kegang smiled and said: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." ”

Zu Dashou ignored He Kegang, untied his trouser belt and urinated towards the city, and shouted arrogantly while urinating: "Come, grass you mother, play this game with Lao Tzu!" ”

Another horse galloped out of the Jiannu array, but this time he learned well, and he no longer approached the city, but shouted from afar: "Since ancient times, the two countries have not fought each other, and General Zu has not made too much money?" ”

Zu Dashou laughed wildly above the city: "Silly you, Huang Taiji and Ben Shuai are not two countries, he is a fucking rebel, understand?"

Lao Tzu just killed a rebel, what kind of war between the two countries? This matter is to make trouble with the emperor, and that is also handsome! ”

The new envoy stretched out his finger and pointed at Zu Dashou, and simply went back to his life - to the emperor?

Doesn't that mean that the dog emperor of the Ming Kingdom is going to go to him? Not to mention that the two countries are already at war, even if it is a friendly and fraternal state, it is obvious how the Dog Emperor will choose.

Feeling that Huang Taiji had been insulted, Jilharang said angrily: "Great Khan! Otherwise, the minions will lead the troops to attack again, and they will definitely take down this Daling City, and then the chickens and dogs will not be left! ”

Huang Taiji squinted his eyes and said, "Don't worry! ”
