Chapter 526: Grassland War II
In just a few years of hard work, this Liu Renyu has been promoted to the general army of Yansui, and it seems that he is not under the control of the Southern Dynasty court, the military is strong, he destroyed Chahar, defeated Ordos, Tumut and Khalkha, and also proposed to kill nobles, divide livestock, and divide pastures.
Such a policy, not to mention Mongolia, is the Dajin Kingdom, and there is no guarantee that it will not be impacted, this Liu Renyu is really a more terrible opponent than the Southern Dynasty, and he must be eliminated when his strength is not strong enough to destroy the Dajin Kingdom at will, otherwise the Dajin Kingdom will sooner or later fall into the hands of this person.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Mongolia and Dajin are about brothers, brothers are in trouble, how can they sit idly by, I want to raise the country's troops to conquer Yansui, and deal with Liu Renyu, what do you think?"
Huang Taiji's voice echoed in the main hall, and those Mongols looked at Daishan, Mang Gurtai, Dolgon, Duoduo, Yue Tuo, Abatai, Feiyangu and other magnates of the Dajin Kingdom with hopeful eyes, hoping to get the words that the Dajin Kingdom was willing to send troops to help Mongolia.
But these magnates of the Dajin Kingdom, when they heard the name Liu Renyu, they were shocked in their hearts, and they all remembered the irritating hot air balloons in the sky above the military camp under the Daling River City, the firecrackers that never sounded at the right time, and the lingering black circles under their eyes.
It's a nightmare! Liu Renyu is the source of nightmares, Dajin sent troops, as long as he got involved with this person, he couldn't get anything good.
Liu Renyu is really not easy to mess with, and the expedition to Liu Renyu is really more dangerous than Tiancong's three-year attack on the Jingshi of the Southern Dynasty, so in the Chongzheng Palace, no one responded to Huang Taiji's question for a while.
Huang Taiji frowned!
"My Dajin Kingdom will not go to him, he will come to our Dajin Kingdom, his policy, you have heard clearly, kill the nobles, divide livestock, pastures, if he completely subdues Mongolia and gets hundreds of thousands of Mongolian cavalry, I ask you, he was just a small guerrilla back then, he was so powerful, and now in the past few years, he has been helped by the Mongols, can my Dajin Kingdom still be able to stop him?
Chahar was wiped out by him, Ordos, Tumut, and Khalkha were driven out of their habitats by him, and his power is still expanding, and when he subdues all the ordinary people of these Mongol brothers, he will go to the side of our Dajin Kingdom, you say, at that time, will we still have a way to live? ”
"Of course Liu Renyu must be exterminated."
A loud voice came.
Huang Taiji fixed his eyes and saw that it was Dolgon.
"Dolgon, do you agree to go to Yansui?"
"His Majesty King Qizhu Khan, we want to kill Liu Renyu, but we don't have to go to Yansui."
"What's your plan?"
Huang Taiji asked, and the rest of the people pricked up their ears and listened.
"As the Mongolian brothers said, Liu Renyu is domineering and domineering, and there is a gap with the court of the Southern Dynasty, Chongzhen suspected Liu Renyu, so he was named an assistant governor of the nine-sided military affairs, and the nine-sided military affairs are nominally responsible for him, our army does not need to gnaw the hard bones of Yansui, just like Tiancong for three years,
Detour to Mongolia, break through the Great Wall, attack the Beijing division of the Southern Dynasty, and the Beijing division of the Southern Dynasty was harassed by us, Chongzhen will inevitably be furious, and will naturally kill Liu Renyu. The minister thought that Chongzhen had originally wanted to kill Liu Renyu by arranging it like this, so let's just hand Chongzhen a knife. ”
After hearing this, Huang Taiji shook his head in disappointment and said: "Liu Renyu is not Yuan Chonghuan, he is suspected by Chongzhen, he will definitely protect himself, my Dajin Kingdom is to attack the Southern Dynasty Jingshi, it has no impact on him, but our army may lose troops and generals." What I want is that our army will conquer Yansui and fight with it.
Our Dajin Kingdom will attack with all its troops, and the worst result is nothing more than a defeat for both sides, and our army's vitality will be greatly damaged, and after returning, it can be filled with savage Jurchens, and the Southern Dynasty will not take the initiative to attack our Dajin Kingdom. On the other hand, if he Liu Renyu loses his strength,
Chongzhen will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of this rebellious minister and thief who has great strength, and is high-flying and domineering, and has the ambition to win the world. After all, the emperor of the Han people is most afraid of the courtiers who intend to usurp power. I expected that if I went to conquer Yansui, other military towns in the Southern Dynasty would not help Liu Renyu.
Go to conquer Liu Renyu now, Liu Renyu still has to guard against the liquidation of the imperial court against him, and he must guard against the Southern Dynasty court, and he will fight with us, it can be said that the Southern Dynasty court is our ally for the time being, and we must seize this opportunity to eliminate Liu Renyu in one fell swoop. Of course, you can also choose to stand still, but by the time Liu Renyu's army arrives at Shengjing City, it will be too late. ”
At this time, the Great Khan was not as autocratic as the Qing Dynasty emperors in later generations, and all major matters still had to be discussed, so whether to go to Yansui or not, it was necessary for the majority of Gushan Ezhen and the banner Beile to agree.
At this time, these Jurchen magnates were quickly calculating in their hearts, especially the abacus in Mang Gurtai's heart was the loudest.
He knew very well that he was a thorn in Huang Taiji's side, and he didn't know whether Chahar was using Zhenglan Banner as cannon fodder again in this attack, with his personality, if he had doubts in his heart, he had to ask them, but when he just wanted to set off to state his opinion, he happened to see Huang Taiji's eyes looking at him, and the meaning revealed in his eyes was very complicated.
Mang Gurtai was suddenly agitated, he realized that Huang Taiji was looking for another excuse to attack him, and he couldn't be reckless at this time.
"Your Majesty, Liu Renyu is indeed a big trouble for my Dajin Kingdom, and the minister thinks that my Dajin Kingdom should immediately send troops to exterminate this thief, and have protected the immortal foundation of my Dajin Kingdom."
"Huh! I didn't think that the number one general of the Dajin Kingdom could still say such things, which is really rare. ”
Hearing Huang Taiji's appreciation, Meng Ertai's eyelids jumped, and he didn't know whether Huang Taiji was appreciating or sneering.
It doesn't matter if it's a ridicule or not, it's just that even Mongoltai, who has always been at odds with Huang Taiji, has come out in favor of sending troops, and the other magnates don't seem to have any reason to refuse.
Huang Taiji looked at Dai Shan again at this time, he didn't say anything, but he seemed to say everything.
Dai Shan understood, and hurriedly went out to play: "The minister also agrees to send troops to recruit Yansui. ”
At this time, the magnates in the audience did not hesitate any longer, and played in unison: "The ministers also agree to send troops." ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Huang Taiji's mouth, he stood up, and said to the ministers with a smile: "When the army goes out, Shengjing will be defended by Abatai, Dudu, Yanguli, Yierden and Tong. ”
On the sixteenth day of the first month, just after the festival, the snow was very deep, but 60,000 elites of the Eight Banners, and there were armor-clad people, soldiers Aha, the remnants of the Mongolian troops, with a total strength of 120,000, still marched from Shengjing and went west.
After the Jiannu army set off, it passed through Horqin along the way, and Horqin Khan prepared cattle and sheep to supply the comfort army, and sent 500 troops to follow Huang Taiji's westward expedition.
The army set out to fight, more than 100,000 horses stretched for nearly 80 miles, the flag covered the sun, and the horses' hooves rumbled.
Along the way, countless pairs of eyes stared at the army in the dark, and when the army had passed, they crawled out of the snowdrifts, went around to the secluded woods, led their horses, turned over their horses, and rushed to their respective superiors' offices to deliver the information to the place where it should be sent.
Daming Jingshi Wenhua Palace, Emperor Chongzhen ordered the military department, Gansu Town, Guyuan Town, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, pay close attention to the movement of Yansui Town, if the Jiannu army attacks Yansui Town, do not move, not allowed to rescue.
In addition, Chongzhen also ordered the ancestor of the Jinzhou front line to withdraw from the Guanning army on the front line of the Daling River, and said that Jiannu moved to defend the Beijing division, and secretly closely monitored Ma Wenshan under Liu Renyu's department.
Ma Wenshan also received instructions from Yansui to hoard food and ordnance, and prepare to defend both inside and outside.
Yansui, Yan'an, Suide, Yulin and other places were all strictly controlled by the Jingbian Fort Army, and the governor of Yansui reported to Hong Chengchou, saying that the order of the governor of Yansui could not leave the governor's office, and the intentions of the Jingbian army were unclear, and I was afraid that it would not be the blessing of the community.
Hong Chengchou replied to Governor Yansui: "Wait and see what happens, and don't make any unnecessary moves, so as not to force Liu Renyu to rebel, and Liu Renyu must be appeased." ”
With tension and the smell of nervousness in the air, Liu Renyu took the two fathers-in-law and his family to live in Liujiabao to prevent the factory guards from wantonly arresting him, making him scruples.
Because the Jiannu army was coming, Liu Renyu left He Ergou to lead the defense of Yansui, all the prefectures, prefectures, counties, forts, and villages dug deep trenches, and the city walls were arranged with tiger squat cannons and furlong machines, and all the people in the city listened to the arrangements of the guards of the border army guarding the city and obeyed the dispatch in order to prepare for war.
The entire Yansui became nervous and busy, waiting for the invasion of the internal enemy or the external enemy.
