It's not that he Huang Taiji didn't have the idea of going south to the Central Plains, after all, his Qing Kingdom had just been established, and there were only more than 200,000 Jurchen people outside the Guan, even if you added those Hans, Koreans, and Mongols who surrendered to them, there were only one or two million people, and there were thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty, and it was a little scary to think about it, so to some extent, he still didn't dare to think about entering the Central Plains.

But this doesn't mean that he doesn't have any ideas at all, after all, their ancestor Jurchen once established the Dajin Kingdom, and once fought to the Yangtze River, and the Southern Song Dynasty at that time shared the world equally, and the current Ming Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty at that time, it is not much stronger, but it seems that this Chongzhen's character is slightly tougher than Song Huizong and Song Gaozong, if he does a good job, he may really have a chance to go south and enter the Central Plains in a few years!

So now there is such a force that is extremely hostile to their Jiannu, obviously it is not good news for him, which is also the reason why he immediately agreed after hearing that the Ming sent an envoy to Yizhou to propose peace with them, one is to obtain a de jure equal status with the Ming Dynasty through this peace, and the other one takes the opportunity to blackmail the Ming Dynasty and pull out the big nail of Jinzhou first. There will be a lot less worries, and then take the opportunity to sign a peace agreement, forcing the Ming Dynasty to follow the example of the Northern Song Dynasty to the Liao State and the Southern Song Dynasty to Dajin every year, and send New Year's coins to him outside the customs, so that they don't have to work hard and risk to knock south, they can easily obtain a large amount of silver, and their days outside the customs will be much better in the future.

One more point, it also shows the insidiousness of Huang Taiji, in the treatment of the Han people, whether it is the official army of the Ming Dynasty, or the Xingtian army, it is obviously his enemy, now this Xiao Xingtian of the Xingtian Army, to compete with the Ming Dynasty for the world, which one of the Ming court is sitting in the court, will definitely not agree, and will never give his world to that Xiao Xingtian, and the Ming is obviously at an absolute disadvantage now, forced by this Xiao Xingtian There is no way out, Only by calling Chen's border troops stationed in Songjin, Shanhaiguan and Xuanda to enter the customs to deal with this Xingtian army, did he send an envoy to him to negotiate peace.

In his opinion, this Xiao Xingtian is also a person who is extremely hostile to their Jiannu, and this person is good at training, and his subordinates control a team of soldiers and horses that can face their Jiannu army, and even this army can defeat their Jiannu army in the field, so Xiao Xingtian has become a very threatening figure to their Jiannu.

If he sits back and watches Daming being overturned by Xiao Xingtian at this time, then one day after this Xiao Xingtian wins the world, he will definitely replace him and continue to be the enemy of their slaves, in that case, when that time comes, they will probably have a hard time! Now that the Xingtian Army only has a territory like Henan and a small part of Jinnan, it can train tens of thousands of elite soldiers and horses, and it can confront them head-on in Jingfu, so in the future, when this Xiao Xingtian obtains the Central Plains, I don't know how many soldiers and horses can be trained at that time? In that case, he will only use such a place outside the Guan, and the number of people under his rule to make enemies with Xiao Xingtian, and if he doesn't do it well, he may fall into a situation of no return, and this newly established Great Qing State may end directly in his hands.

So at this time, Da Ming came to him to negotiate peace, it can be said that it is in his arms, since Da Ming wants to send the northern soldiers south to deal with this Xiao Xingtian's Xingtian Army, then it is a very cost-effective deal for him, they are all Han people, Han people fight Han people, Han people kill Han people, the more you kill, the better, no matter who wins in the end, the remaining winner, I am afraid that there will be a big loss, when the time comes, he can take the opportunity to wave his army south, and then deal a heavy blow to this winner, maybe he can capture the Central Plains! Maybe we can finally dominate the world!

It can be said that this is the Emperor Taiji this time so generous, a bite of the promise to come down, the Ming can pause, to give them the New Year's coins, what he wants is that the Ming Emperor quickly transferred these Ming troops outside the pass, to deal with the Xingtian army, once he sees the opportunity to wave the army south, the Ming Dynasty left these officers and soldiers outside the pass will not be enough to stop him, he can easily take down the entire border pass, take advantage of the situation to wave the army south to pass the world!

At the same time, Huang Taiji also learned about the tactics of the Xingtian Army from the Tartar generals who came back from entering the customs, and when he heard that the Xingtian Army actually used a large number of "bird guns" that they had always looked down on, he was shocked to beat the Jiannu Army under his command to the point that he was unable to fight back, so he immediately had a detailed understanding of the generals who had fought with the Xingtian Army, and somewhat figured out some of the combat methods of the Xingtian Army.

So these slave chieftains who built slaves pondered it, and later Fan Wencheng and Dolgon and others all proposed that they should govern their bodies in the way of others, and the Xingtian Army was not sharp and powerful with firearms? Then they are not without birds, you must know that over the years, they have captured a lot of Ming firearms in the fight with the Ming border army, and also captured a lot of Ming officers and soldiers, of course, there are also many traitors represented by Ming generals such as Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming who surrendered to Jiannu, so that there is no shortage of things like bird guns in the Jiannu army.

Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming and other Ming generals surrendered to slaves, not only brought a lot of Han soldiers under their command, but also the most important thing was to capture a lot of craftsmen who were good at casting cannons from Dengzhou and fled to Liaodong, so that the Tartars who were originally at the production level of semi-primitive people had advanced casting cannons and smelting capabilities, and began to cast Hongyi cannons by themselves, Tartars attached great importance to this, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the quality and quantity of gunpowder of the Jiannu army could already confront the Ming army head-on, and even suppressed the artillery of the Ming army. In particular, the heavy Hongyi cannon cast played a great role in repeated siege battles, and could often concentrate artillery fire to collapse the walls of the city defended by the Ming army, and then capture the city.

But Jiannu was not interested in individual firearms such as bird guns before, because in the repeated battles with the Ming army, the firearms of the Ming army did not exert much combat effectiveness, and the performance was low, starting from the battle of Salhu, the Ming army had a lot of firearms and equipment, but it was still repeatedly defeated by the Tartar army, so in the eyes of the Tartars, these firearms of the Ming army were only those Hongyi cannons, and the rest were basically chicken ribs, so among the eight banners, very few firearms would be equipped with firearms used by individual soldiers, and they were relatively speaking, or more advocating cold weapons such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, and the construction of strong bows and crossbows and cavalry.

So for a long time, like the Han soldiers who surrendered to them, they were not paid much attention, and more often they were driven to use them as cannon fodder, but this time, when they met the Xingtian Army, the Tartars suddenly discovered that in fact, these firearms that were not worth a penny in their eyes before, once applied in the way of the Xingtian Army, were still quite terrifying, and a large number of their brave warriors did not die under the opponent's sword, but a large number of them were so meaningless by the opponent's firearms far away on the battlefield, This kind of death is really unacceptable to them, and even makes them feel humiliated, and it also makes them feel that the Xingtian Army is all cowards, and the methods used to kill so many of their warriors are indeed despicable.

But they have to admit that this kind of tactics of the Xingtian Army is indeed very effective against them, and the strong bow and hard crossbow have lost their original power in front of the bird guns used by the Xingtian Army a lot, and they do not take advantage of long-distance combat, and they rush up to play and fight for their lives, which is even more tragic, and they can only watch their warriors being killed by batches like slaughter, so they must find a way to restrain this tactic of the Xingtian Army.

After thinking about it, Dolgon and they still thought of treating them in the way of others, and also used their similar tactics, so that the Ming army that surrendered to them also used the "same" bird gun as the Xingtian Army, and fought them head-on, anyway, these Han soldiers are not distressed when they die, and one day once they meet the Xingtian Army again, let the Han soldiers fight to the death with the Xingtian Army, and then their Manchurian Eight Banners will deal with those Xingtian Army, so that they will be sure to defeat the Xingtian Army.

So after Dolgon led his troops back to Guanwai, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, a group of Ming generals, suddenly began to be taken seriously, a large number of captured Ming troops, as well as the Ming generals who surrendered to them were selected from the clothed slaves, and in addition, from the Han people under the Eight Banners of Manchuria, twenty people were drawn one ding, and assigned to Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming under their Han army as soldiers, greatly expanding Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming their Han army strength.

At the same time, they turned over the boxes and cabinets to check out the bird guns, old-fashioned firearms, three-eyed guns, and even the relatively rare Thunderbolt guns, Five Thunder God Machines and other firearms that had been seized from the hands of the Ming army over the years, and increased the production of gunpowder and equipped them into the Han army, began to train these Han soldiers under them, and one day, they went to deal with the Xingtian army that made Dolgon and other Qing troops suffer a loss this time.

Of course, Huang Taiji agreed to make peace with Da Ming so readily this time, and there is another very important reason, which is inseparable from the Xingtian Army.
