Chapter 935: Hauge divides his troops
The dilemma of the Jin army is completely self-inflicted.
Hauge asked everyone how to solve the problem and how to deal with the aftermath, and the generals of the Jin State in the tent looked at each other, and discussed for a while, but no one could say a good solution.
Haoge took the initiative to break the contract, destroying the peace between the Jin State and the Ming Dynasty and maintaining a tacit understanding for three years, the Jin State suddenly attacked Sichuan, and also killed Wang Yan's general Yuan Zongdi, Zhongyi Town 20,000 Ming troops, and now I want to pretend that nothing is right, I want to get out, unless the situation of the Jin State is very good, let the Ming Dynasty swallow its anger for the time being, otherwise it is obviously unlikely.
Jin State tore up the peace agreement on the grounds that the Southern Ming Dynasty assassinated the Qing envoy and interfered with the national policy of the Jin State, which could only deceive the ministers who opposed the war with the Ming Dynasty in the Jin State and gag their mouths, but the Ming Dynasty naturally knew best whether they had sent someone to assassinate the Qing envoy.
In this case, Haoge wants to solve the dilemma of the Jin Kingdom, which means that he wants to reconcile with the Ming Dynasty and does not want to fight, I am afraid that there is some wishful thinking.
Haoge really hoped that the current situation with the Ming Dynasty could be maintained again, so that he could withdraw to deal with Sun Kewang, after he finished speaking, he waited for the ministers in the account to share his worries, but he waited for a while, but no one came out to speak.
Haoge watched everyone in the tent talk for a while, and he couldn't help but be a little irritable, but at this moment, a member of the gold general walked into the tent and saluted Haoge: "Your Majesty, a small boat came from the river just now, and a letter was delivered!" β
The general's words immediately quieted down many ministers in the tent and locked their eyes on the golden general.
The letter sent by Jiang Shang, what does this mean, does the Ming army have any ideas to talk to Jin Guo? Hauge also perked up, "What about the letter? Hurry up! β
General Jin immediately got up and walked a few steps, then took out a letter from his arms and presented it to Hauge, Hauge took it and quickly opened it to take a look, but after reading it, his face did not show joy.
The people below looked at Hauge and saw that he was silent for a while, Han Chaoxuan waited for a while, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so he stood up and whispered to break the silence in the tent and asked, "Your Majesty, what does the letter say?" β
Hao Ge was slightly stunned, came back to his senses, put away the letter, frowned and said: "He Tengjiao's letter, I hope to exchange the corpses of Ao Bai and Table Cloth Tai for the corpses of Yuan Zongdi and others, as well as the prisoners of the Ming army!" β
There was no intention of making peace in the letter, and Hauge was somewhat disappointed.
Han Chaoxuan was overjoyed when he heard this, raised his eyebrows, and saluted: "Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity!" The minister thought that he could agree, so that he could exchange the corpses of Ao Bai and Table Butai back, so as not to make a big fuss about Nanming and damage the face of our Dajin Kingdom, and second, he could establish communication with He Tengjiao, repair the relationship between the two countries, and see if there was a temporary truce. β
Ao Bai is the first warrior boasted by the Dajin Kingdom, but now he was killed by the Ming army, his death must be a huge blow to the morale of the Jin army, and it also damaged the face of the Jin country.
Wu Sangui felt that Han Chaoxuan was a little naΓ―ve, and it was difficult to reconcile the mirror, and if he wanted to repair the relationship between the two countries, I am afraid that it was impossible, even if Nanming chose a truce, he also pointed out that it would be because the truce was in the interests of Nanming, not that Jin Guo would show goodwill to Nanming and repair what relationship.
After hearing this, Sonny saw that most of the people agreed, but he said: "It's okay to exchange, but the Ming Dynasty's request is not too much, and if you want to return the prisoners, there are more than a thousand miles." β
Meng Qiaofang, who was sitting in Chengdu, sent news that Sun Kewang had 40,000 horses and horses to advance into southern Sichuan, breaking the powerful forces in Luzhou and other places, and several provinces in southern Sichuan were occupied by Sun Kewang, and Meng Qiaofang had encountered Sun Kewang's partial division in Jiading Prefecture.
Hauge groaned for a while, after the Ming army retreated to Chongqing, it was impossible for him to attack Chongqing, and he was now desperate to draw out his troops, and he didn't want to continue to fight the Ming Dynasty here.
"The Ming Dynasty has indeed asked too much, but this is indeed an opportunity, and I think I can agree to the conditions." Haoge was silent for a while, then looked at Wu Sangui and said: "But it can't be too cheap He Tengjiao, the second son of King Pingxi is still in the hands of the Ming army, I hope He Tengjiao can make a guarantee and promise that Nanming can be released!" β
Wu Sangui was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Hauge to add such a condition, people like him don't care so much about his family, but since Hauge put forward such a condition for him, he must express it, so he immediately got up and bowed: "Thank you to the emperor Longen!" It is difficult to repay the emperor's great kindness! β
At that moment, Hauge waved his hand to let him ignore it, and then glanced at everyone and asked: "Who wants to go to the south bank, meet He Tengjiao for a while, reach an exchange agreement, and then test the truce!" β
In the account, the ministers of Jin Guo looked at each other, and most of them had no connections in Nanming, so this matter naturally fell on Han Chaoxuan.
"The minister is willing to take a trip to restore the diplomatic relations between the two countries!" Han Chaoxuan was an acquaintance of Wang Yan, and he got up and saluted and said.
Haoge was anxious, and ordered Han Chaoxuan to move quickly, and then dismissed everyone, leaving Wu Sangui to continue the negotiations.
After everyone left, Haoge asked Wu Sangui: "There are 50,000 Ming troops in Chongqing, how many men does Wu Qing need to block the Ming army from crossing the river for a counterattack!" β
Wu Sangui didn't expect Hao Ge to ask him this question, he was silent for a while, thought in his heart for a while, and then said: "If it is only the current 50,000 Ming troops, the minister should be able to block it with 20,000 horses, but if the Ming Dynasty reinforcements arrive, then the situation is not easy to say." β
Haoge nodded, walked a few steps back and forth, stopped and looked at Wu Sangui and said: "I gave the Qing family 30,000 horses, and the defense of the entire eastern Sichuan was entrusted to the Qing family, and I returned to Chengdu to prepare to fight for western Sichuan and southern Sichuan, what do the Qing family think?" β
The defense of the entire eastern Sichuan is not only facing the 50,000 Ming troops in Chongqing, but also the direction of the Three Gorges, but the terrain of the Three Gorges is dangerous, and it is difficult for the Ming army to break through as long as four or five thousand men and horses are placed. Haoge said to give 30,000 horses, so it seems that there is more than Wu Sangui's requirements, but Wu Sangui is not worried about the current defense, he believes that in a short time, the Ming army will not attack him, he is worried that the Jin State will break the contract this time, bringing about the shift of the strategic focus of the Southern Ming court.
If the Ming Dynasty shifted its attention from Lianghuai to the southwest, there would inevitably be more Ming troops to march into the southwest, and he really couldn't resist it, but Haoge said this to him, and he wanted to change his second son for him, obviously he had made up his mind.
"Your Majesty, if the current situation is the case, the minister can block the enemy in the south of the Yangtze River, but if the main force of the Ming army arrives, the minister hopes that the emperor can immediately send troops to support!"
Seeing that he agreed, Haoge bowed slightly, "If Han Qing can communicate properly with He Tengjiao, it is certainly a good thing that the two parties have reached a tacit understanding from scratch." But I can't pin all my hopes on this, the Qing family guards the east of Sichuan, I will drive out Sun Kewang as soon as possible, and then recruit men and horses to prepare for war, and will not let the Ming army retake Sichuan! β
