Chapter 2 The Jackal Tyranny, Burning the Beacon Smoke

Section 7 Flag Owners

In the middle of August of the forty-fourth year of Wanli (the first year of the Later Jin Mandate of Heaven), on the outskirts of Hetuala.

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the air was filled with a scorching breath, as if it was about to squeeze everything in the world dry. However, the road to Hetuara was dusty, the roar of war horses came from far and near, and hundreds of Jiannu heavy armor marched slowly, and neat war horses trampled the land, like a moving steel fortress.

Hundreds of heavily armored iron cavalry belonged to each of the eight banners, guarding several Jiannu generals together, slowly marching towards Hetuala, the standard-bearers in the team held high various flags, and the flags were the generals of the owners of the Jiannu banners.

Five Jiannu banner owners (at this time, among the eight banners of Jiannu, Nurhachi led two yellow flags, Huang Taiji led the white flag, Azig led the white flag, Daishan led the red flag and the red flag, Amin led the blue flag, Mang Gurtai led the blue flag, except for Nurhachi, there were five flag owners in charge of each flag. They walked separately in several groups, and hundreds of iron horsemen followed more than ten paces behind.

Dai Shan sat on the horse with a calm face and walked slowly, and his son Yue Tuo followed half a body behind, whispering something to Dai Shan.

After listening for a while, Dai Shan's face was a little frightened, and he asked in a low voice: "This son was ambushed by superior forces, but he can still retreat with his whole body?" Or capture Harak alive as soon as you get together? ”

Yue Tuo nodded, wiped a handful of stinky sweat from his bare forehead, and did not speak.

"Who is Halak looking for? So careless! It's just reluctant to use the warriors in the flag, how can you find some shrimp soldiers and crabs to be perfunctory in the future?! ”

Yue Tuo said: "Halak is looking for the mountain bandits near the wicker village, it is said that the owner of the village is extremely brave, and he is a hard stubble that even the nearby Ming border army does not dare to provoke, but he didn't expect it to be a waste with a vain reputation!" And this Halak, who is so disgraced and calls himself a warrior! ”

Dai Shan thought for a while, and then said: "If you think about it carefully, if Halak didn't lie, then you can't blame him entirely, you can only blame Halak's bad luck, this slave has met a real fierce general." ”

Yue Tuo pondered for a moment and nodded: "Then Liu Yunwei has such courage!" ”

Dai Shan ignored Yue Tuo's exclamation, but scolded: "Don't talk about that Harak, you don't want to be thoughtful before you act, if you want to kill, you will hit with one blow!" Now that things are so tricky, how do you manage the beginning and the end? Not only has it made the Ming people laugh so far, but if the Great Khan knew that we had used the Holy Decree to carry out the assassination, he would definitely be furious and punish us with two red flags! ”

Yue Tuo hurriedly admitted his mistake, the beads of sweat on his head were like rain, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

After Dai Shan finished speaking, he glared at Yue Tuo fiercely, and after a while, Dai Shan said thoughtfully: "Death on the battlefield? You remember, if you have the opportunity in the future, you must kill this Liu Yunwei, at any cost! Otherwise, this son will become a problem for my big gold! ”

Yue Tuo nodded heavily and said, "The child obeys!" ”

"Also, find a chance to get rid of Halak and clean it up. This must not be passed on, especially not by that person! ”

"He is the one who intends to throne the throne above ten thousand."

Yue Tuo followed Dai Shan's gaze, and saw Huang Taiji walking alone on a horse, snorted coldly, and said fiercely: "Take the order!" ”

Huang Taiji rode a horse alone and walked in front of Dai Shan's father and son, suddenly his heart moved, he tilted his head slightly, and he saw Dai Shan's father and son whispering something.

A sneer hung on the corner of Huang Taiji's mouth: "Big Baylor? Hum! Seth Black in the way! Sooner or later, Ben Baylor will remove you from the regent! ”

Huang Taiji looked at Mang Gurtai and Azig in front of him again, his expression was a little contemptuous, and he secretly said in his heart: "Two reckless men! ”

At this time, Amin Zema leaned over, and Yu immediately saluted and said, "Four Baylor, this day is really poisonous, how are you doing lately?" ”

"Fortunately, Erbeile has been getting more and more energetic lately." Huang Taiji returned the salute and said.

"Haha, where, where, how can I compare to the radiant face of the fourth Belle"

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, said something that was not nutritious, and then rode away side by side, saying no more.

After a while, Amin said, "Sibeile, do you know why the Great Khan summoned us this time? ”

Huang Taiji looked ahead and said with a smile: "Erbeile, why do you want to ask knowingly. ”

Seeing Huang Taiji's arrogant expression, Amin felt a little unhappy in his heart, and said, "Sibeile, let's discuss, how to deal with the Khan's inquiry?" ”

"Oh? What is the negotiation method? Huang Taiji asked.

Amin said to Huang Taiji: "Sibeile, do you think that if you use troops against the Ming Kingdom, is Dajin ready now?" You must know that the Ming people are far superior to me in terms of national strength, military strength, financial resources, and territory. Once we start a war against Ming, they can be defeated ten or a hundred times, but as long as we are defeated once, it will be the disaster of extermination, and we can't afford to lose. ”

Huang Taiji's face was impassive, but he was a little surprised in his heart: "This one can be regarded as thoughtful, thinking about defeat before winning, and thinking of the key issue - strength." This Erbeile is much stronger than the two reckless men of Azig and Mang Gurtai, so I don't know if he has any thoughts about that position, otherwise he can be enveloped in the future. ”

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji said with a smile: "Haha, what Erbeile said is extremely true, but I think that according to the current situation, my Dajin must go to war with the Ming Kingdom." ”

"Why?"

Huang Taiji said slowly: "One: Now, my Dajin has established a country in the land that originally belonged to the Ming State Nuer Gandusi, and the Ming State will not give up anyway, you must know that the Ming State has always been tough on the outside world, and it is a matter of time before the Ming State goes to war. Second: As Erbeiler said, my Dajin country is far inferior to the Ming country, so we must maintain an enterprising spirit, weaken the national strength of the Ming country through continuous looting and harassment, and gradually strengthen ourselves. Otherwise, Daikin will always be a remote and small state, and it will never be able to narrow the gap with the Ming State in terms of national strength, in which case Daikin will have no future; And to forge ahead, the only way to develop is to develop in three directions---- steppe, Mongolia, Korea, and the Ming Kingdom. ”

Amin was also pondering when he heard this, nodded heavily, and said: "What Sibeile said is extremely true, so why not annex Mongolia and Korea first, and then march into the Ming Kingdom at the end?" In this way, the forces of Mongolia and Korea can be integrated for the war, and there is no need to worry about the future. ”

Huang Taiji sneered in his heart: "How can Mongolia and North Korea be taken overnight?" How could the Ming Kingdom sit idly by and watch the destruction of the two countries? But his face was still smiling, and he said: "Erbeile, the Mongolian tribes have the call of Lin Dan Khan, and their strength is still strong, even if I capture Mongolia, I will lose a lot, but Mongolia's goods, population, and materials are not much, and now the annexation of them is more than worth the loss, and it is not conducive to enhancing the national strength; And the DPRK is even more narrow and poor, and it is useless to gain it. So...... ”

Amin suddenly realized and said: "So I can only attack the Ming, obtain a large amount of wealth and population from the Ming Kingdom, gradually increase the national strength of my Dajin, and then find an opportunity to annex Mongolia and North Korea to get rid of my worries." ”

"Exactly."

Huang Taiji saw that Amin was still a little hesitant, so he said: "Erbeiler, rest assured, as long as I, Dajin, start attacking like a rainbow and first sweep away a few elites of the Ming Kingdom, the Ming Kingdom will not be able to fight again in a short time." You must know that today's natural and man-made disasters in the Ming Kingdom are continuous, and they are already in decline. In my opinion, the chaos in the Central Plains is about to appear, and it is a good time for me to look at it with great gold. ”

Amin looked at the talkative Huang Taiji and exclaimed, "What Sibeile said is extremely true. At the same time, he exclaimed in his heart: "Huang Taiji is really extraordinary, I hope it will not be an enemy in the future." ”

Azig and Mang Gultai were not far from Huang Taiji, and when they heard their conversation, they rode back to their side.

Azig shouted: "Second Belle and Fourth Belle are high, but don't forget, the Han people are not my golden warriors, they are just lambs to the slaughter, in my opinion, there is no need to look forward to them, as long as they are killed, they can kill all their men, take their women captive, enslave their children, and plunder their property." ”

Mang Gurtai laughed wildly after hearing this, and said, "Taiji said it well! ”

After saying that, Azig and Mang Gultai laughed wildly, and the two of them were extremely arrogant.

Huang Taiji and Amin didn't speak, the two looked at each other, as if they both saw the word "reckless" in each other's eyes.

At this moment, a team of elite Zhenghuang Banner Baya Lama cavalry rode their horses and rushed over, and Huang Taiji and several people saw it from a distance, knowing that it was the personal guard of the Great Khan Nurhachi, and hurriedly rode their horses to meet them.

One of the leaders saluted and said: "Banner masters, according to the edict of Dajin Yingming Khan and His Majesty the Emperor, all the Eight Banner Masters can rush to Xingjing (Hetuala) at full speed to discuss matters after receiving the order, and there must be no delay!" ”

Huang Taiji and the others were stunned, and they all knew in their hearts that something was wrong, so they no longer hesitated, and followed the Zhenghuang Banner cavalry who came to give the order and galloped towards Hetuala.

In a short time, the brigade of iron horsemen arrived at the foot of the city of Hetuala.

Just as the Jiannu banner owners arrived at Hetuala, in a dense forest far outside the city, several strong men dressed in Orion costumes were whispering something, and one of them was Yuan Mingxuan, the commander of Liu Ling's subordinates.

"Have you all taken a closer look?" Yuan Mingxuan looked at several of his subordinates and asked.

Several people nodded, and one of them said, "Boss, don't worry." We really saw it, the five Tartar banner lords were here, and hundreds of heavy armor guarded the city they entered, and we couldn't be wrong. ”

Yuan Mingxuan nodded, holding a branch in his hand and unconsciously scratching the ground, looking down to think about something.

After a while, Yuan Mingxuan got up and said, "A few of you continue to stay near Hetuara and keep an eye on the Tartars, and report to me in time if there is a situation." I will go back to Liaoyang now and report the matter to the old general. It seems that Tartar is going to do something big, Liaodong is about to change, and the mountains and rains are about to come and the wind is full of buildings. ”
