Chapter 262: Reasons for Leaving the Army (Asking for Subscriptions, Recommendations, Collections)
Houjin Baqi stayed under Ningyuan City for another two days in Nurhachi's hesitation.
Attacking the city directly, Nurhachi gave up. The problem is that if you want to annihilate the enemy in the field, no matter how Nurhachi sends a team to lure him, Ning Yuanming's army will not go out of the city.
In two days, except for the Eight Banners team to clean up the battlefield under the city, the Houjin army had no gain.
Later, Ning Yuanmingjun saw that the Eight Banners squad could only do some chores to clean up the battlefield, and they didn't even bother to fire the artillery.
Ning Yuanmingjun's attitude of ignoring made Nurhachi feel even more disheartened.
It seems that I am really old.
Nurhachi muttered to himself wearily in the big tent.
This is the first time in Nurhachi's heart that he has admitted that he is old.
Let's prepare to withdraw our troops.
Nurhachi thought silently.
The grain and grass reserves in the Houjin army have been reduced to a level worthy of alarm, and Nurhachi has to prepare to retreat.
The sound of hooves came from outside the tent, and a guard hurried in.
"Great Khan, Shengjing Sibeile urgently!" The guard said hurriedly.
"Call him in." Nurhachi greeted him lazily.
A dusty messenger walked into Nurhachi's tent with a sweaty head.
"Thief Ann dares to deceive me!"
Nurhachi's unusually angry voice came from inside the tent.
On October 24, the fifth year of the Apocalypse, the main force of the Houjin Eight Banners took the initiative to evacuate Ningyuan and return to Shengjing.
The Ningyuan War was completely over.
Shengjing
Huang Taiji asked in a slightly skeptical tone, "Sir, can such an urgent report be useful?" ”
"It works." Fan Wencheng replied in the affirmative.
"If Old Khan's attack on Ning Yuan goes well, this urgent report is just a normal military intelligence report from Lord Belle. At most, it made the old Khan laugh at Lord Belle and was a little too cautious.
But if Ning Yuan can't attack it for a long time, this urgent report from Lord Belle is the best reason for Lao Khan to withdraw his troops. Old Khan is old, we must give him a proper step. ”
In the face of Huang Taiji's questioning, Fan Wencheng explained in detail.
After listening to Fan Wencheng's explanation, Huang Taiji thought for a moment and nodded with a smile.
During this time, there was indeed a small problem with Dakin's rear.
It is estimated that he heard the news that the main force of the Dajin Eight Banners went out, and all the clowns jumped out.
Like Mao Wenlong from Phi Island, Shen Yourong from Guanglu Island, and even Khalkha Mongolia from the grassland, they all went to Dajin to fight the autumn wind.
Although I know that it is difficult for them to cause too much damage to Daikin, it is really annoying.
Daikin is now the main force of the Eight Banners to go to Ningyuan, and only the white flag of Huang Taiji is left.
To take care of such a large area as Dajin with the power of one banner, and the opponent is three families together, Huang Taiji does feel a little stretched.
From this point of view, the urgent report is not too exaggerated.
In fact, in the eyes of Huang Taiji, these few families who came to disturb were just some extremely poor bandits.
is like Mao Wenlong, who is said to be the chief soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and seems to be the highest-level military general of the Ming Dynasty. His troops are also considered to be regular officers of the Ming Dynasty.
But Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Town troops have a bit of a regular army.
They are simply more bandits than bandits.
Whenever Mao Wenlong's troops crossed the border, it was always the result of not having a single crop.
That Mao Wenlong's troops were everywhere, robbing everything they saw, and even robbing people.
Wherever Dajin was captured by Mao Wenlong, where was it not a serious injury, it could not be recovered.
And this Mao Wenlong's sense of smell is still extremely sensitive, and when Dajin's main force moves, he runs faster than anyone else.
Dajin tried to round him up several times, but Mao Wenlong easily slid over.
This Mao Wenlong is the most standard old bandit, relying on Lao Chaopi Island at sea, which is unscrupulous to harass Dajin everywhere.
And the Mongolian Khalkha Department is a group of extremely poor horse bandits.
They relied on the advantage of horses and repeatedly harassed Dajin's rule, and they didn't even let go of the iron pot when they saw anything.
The only thing that the Khalkha Ministry is a little stronger than Mao Wenlong's Ministry is that they don't rob people.
All in all, they're all poor ghosts who haven't seen anything.
There were several harassing troops, and the only one that looked like a unit was Shen Yourong's troops.
This army can be regarded as the real Ming army.
However, Shen Yourong's troops had a large number of ships, and they could choose to land anywhere along the coast of Dajin. Coming and going too fast, Daikin can't guard against him.
Fortunately, Shen Yourong's troops were not strong in land warfare, and they did not dare to go too deep into Dajin's hinterland, so they did not cause too much damage to Dajin.
Now that these three troops have embraced together, Huang Taiji really has a bit of a headache.
With the strength of his white flag, it is no problem to fight all the way, but if the soldiers are divided into three ways, there will be some lack of strength on the road.
So Huang Taiji still can't make up his mind about which way to attack.
Seeing Huang Taiji's brows furrowed slightly, Fan Wencheng knew what Huang Taiji was embarrassed about. He said softly: "Lord Belle, let's defend first. Attack, you better wait for Lao Khan's reply before making a decision! ”
Slightly startled in his heart, Huang Taiji couldn't help but think of what Fan Wencheng had said to him when he sent out the battle report.
Ning Yuan, if the old khan fails to defeat it, then these thieves should be left to the old khan to deal with.
We must give Old Khan a place to vent his anger!
Fan Wencheng is so sure?
Could Ning Yuan really be as difficult to fight as Fan Wencheng guessed?
Although he didn't believe it, Huang Taiji still postponed the time to send troops.
Soon, Huang Taiji felt extremely glad about his decision not to move.
Among the three people who harassed Hou Jin, one of them actually showed changes that Huang Taiji never imagined.
First of all, Huang Taiji didn't expect that the Khalkha Ministry would also send troops to join in the fun.
You must know that throughout the first half of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Houjin continued to send troops to harass the Khalkha Ministry.
Under the planned harassment of the Houjin, the Khalkha Ministry has been successfully forced to shrink into the depths of the steppe.
According to Houjin's plan, when this winter passes, retreat back to the Khalkha Department where the steppe people are sleepy and lacking, and if they do not give in, Houjin will levy the main force to completely defeat the Khalkha Department.
Even if a full-scale war with Mongolia was launched for this, Houjin did not hesitate.
Huang Taiji did not expect that the Khalkha Ministry, which was harassed by Houjin and had obviously declined, would send troops to harass Houjin in turn.
And where did they get this courage?
Even if the Mongols did not lack the courage to fight, where did the Khalkha Ministry get the grain and grass materials that they sent troops to loot?
The Khalkha Ministry is not afraid that it will not be able to grab grain and grass in Dajin, and it will discount the cost of sending troops?
Khalkha did not know how poor the Nikans near the steppe were.
Huang Taiji was puzzled by this problem.
Could it be that the Khalkha Ministry still dares to go deep into the hinterland of our country to loot?
