Emperor Ming Fengyunlu

Volume 1 Liaodong Shock

Chapter 2 The Jackal Tyranny, Burning the Beacon Smoke

Section 1 Khan of the Kingdom of Jin

At the end of April of the forty-fourth year of Wanli, Hetuala.

Since Nurhachi established the Dajin Kingdom, the city of Hetuala, located in the border of eastern Liao, has been reborn, almost overnight from a small border city to a bustling market.

Most of the Jurchen tribes of Jianzhou gathered here, and there were constantly Han people from all over Liaodong and Dingkou of other tribes who were arrested here and became the clothed servants of Jiannu. For a time, the population of Hetuara skyrocketed.

One day, on the school field west of Hetuala, thousands of slaves of all kinds stood densely packed. There are Han people, as well as so-called wild Jurchens such as Dahur and Oroqen.

These slaves stood in the scorching sun for half a day, as if waiting for something. Some of the weaker slaves were knocked unconscious and quickly dragged away and disposed of.

Around these slaves, there were hundreds of fully armored and stubborn Jiannu soldiers, guarding the surroundings.

Suddenly, a low horn sounded, and I saw a team of iron horsemen rushing into the school field, the knights were all wearing double layers of heavy armor of the two yellow flag elites, the war horses were all one of the hundred heavy armored dragon horses, and there was a person in the iron horse: long face and thick eyebrows, eyes with fierce eyes, burly, extremely powerful, this person is the founding emperor of Dajin: Nurhachi.

Surrounded by the banner lords and the guards and iron horsemen, Nurhachi turned over and dismounted in front of the martial arts platform, and slowly walked up to the high platform.

The stage was unusually quiet, and thousands of slaves did not dare to come out, they knew that the Dajin Emperor on the high platform was extremely cruel, and any inadvertent move could lead to death.

Nurhachi raised his head and looked down at the entire school field, a long face full of beards was extremely gloomy, and the five banner masters of Huang Taiji, Dai Shan, Azig, Mang Gurtai, and Amin stood respectfully aside. After a long time, Nurhachi signaled to the next emperor Taiji, and then sat under the umbrella without saying a word.

Huang Taiji understood, knelt down to Nurhachi, who was sitting upright, and then got up and shouted to the thousands of slaves in the audience: "I give you two choices, first: from today on, you are my warriors and servants of His Majesty the Emperor Dajin." From this day on, you will fight bloodily for Daikin; Second: Kill all on the spot! ”

Huang Taiji looked around the audience and asked viciously, "Who doesn't want to work for Dakin?" Who! ”

The thousands of people present bowed their heads and no one spoke, choosing between being a slave and dying immediately, and all of them chose the former.

Huang Taiji smiled with satisfaction, ordered his subordinates to arrange the slaves into the flags, and when he turned around, he saw one of his attendants coming to the stage, looking nervous as if he had something to report.

"What's the matter?" Huang Taiji walked to the side farther away from the other banner masters, and asked as he approached the attendant.

The close attendant said: "Master Qiqi, it is reported that a Niu Lu with a red flag went to the Liao River Valley to arrest Han Nu a few days ago, but the return period has passed, and the entire Niu Lu has not returned and has not been heard from so far. ”

"What!" Huang Taiji was taken aback, and quickly thought in his heart: "The entire Niu Lu is missing, it can't be a defection, so what's going on?" Could it be that it was eaten by the Ming army? The warrior who ate my Dajin and a Niulu, is there such a brave Ming army in Liaodong? No way! ”

"However, no matter what the reason is, this is a good opportunity to suppress Dai Shan (Dai Shan is in charge of the two flags of Zhenghong and Red, and his strength is strong) and consolidate his position as a white flag!"

Huang Taiji made up his mind, walked quickly in front of Nurhachi, and knelt down.

As soon as the banner owners saw the dignified white flag owners acting like this, something big must have happened, and their hearts jumped.

Dai Shan and his son Yue Tuo glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Seeing that Huang Taiji was like this, Nurhachi's face turned gloomy, and he asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

Huang Taiji tried his best to pretend to be extremely frightened, and replied, "Father Khan, something big has happened. ”

"What's the matter?" Nurhachi snorted.

Huang Taiji was shocked when he heard this, no longer pretending to be a gesture, and hurriedly said: "Father Khan, it is reported that a Niu Lu with a red flag disappeared when he went out to catch slaves. ”

Dai Shan and Yue Tuo were shocked, the father and son knelt down directly, and Dai Shan even crawled hand and foot in front of Nurhachi and kowtowed.

Nurhachi didn't speak, a pair of eagle eyes stared coldly at Yue Tuo, and Yue Tuo suddenly felt like falling into an ice cellar.

"Yue Tuo! You say, what the hell is going on. Nurhachi ignored Dai Shan, who climbed in front of him, and said coldly.

Yue Tuo was very frightened in his heart, and said: "Qi Qi Great Khan, a few days ago, Qizhong did send the warrior Nero out to catch slaves. But the appointed return date had passed, and Nero's ministry was still not forthcoming. Just yesterday, some of Nero's warriors fled, claiming that Nero led his troops to encounter a very brave Ming army, and was defeated by this Ming army. ”

Nurhachi slowly stood up, pressed to Yue Tuo step by step, and asked, "How many people are there in that Ming army?" How many Nero were there? ”

"Back to the Great Khan, Nero's ministry was nearly five hundred; According to the warriors who fled, the Ming army also numbered in the hundreds, and in particular, dozens of them were particularly tenacious, almost one to ten. ”

Nurhachi asked again, "Then why didn't you report it?" Why don't you report it, do you think that since you are the regent appointed by me, you don't have to report to me?! ”

Dai Shan's bare head was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and the whole person was almost about to collapse under the pressure of Nurhachi, and at this time he said in a strong spirit: "Back to the Great Khan, the sons and sons of the sons feel that this matter is strange, what is the Ming army in Liaodong like?" How could there be such combat power, the minister was afraid that this matter would be used by people with ulterior motives, so he gathered the warriors who came back together and grounded them, wanting to find out the matter and report it to the Great Khan. ”

Nurhachi looked at Daishan noncommittally, and soon paced back and forth, as if thinking about something. After a while, Nurhachi said: "Don't underestimate the Ming people, the hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, and it is difficult to guarantee that the Southern Dynasty will not produce any more elite soldiers and strong generals, this matter may be true." ”

"What?"

"Impossible!"

Huang Taiji and several other banner owners were very surprised when they heard Nurhachi's words, in their hearts, since the death of Li Chengliang, the former general soldier of Liaodong, no one in Liaodong and even the Ming Dynasty can no longer be seen.

Nurhachi looked at the banner masters, and his heart was a little unhappy. It's not because of the loss of a Niu Lu's troops, in his eyes, human life is like a mustard. Nurhachi was angry with the arrogance and complacency of the Eight Banners and the Eight Banners of these tribes.

Nurhachi sneered in his heart: "Now the soldiers of the Dajin Kingdom are very sharp, and they are indeed not afraid of the Ming army in Liaodong, and dozens of Dajin warriors can defeat hundreds or even thousands of Ming troops, but this does not mean that the Ming Dynasty is vulnerable." The emperor who is now sitting in the city of Beijing is an emperor of the ages, and he has not been defeated in the four seas so far; And the Ming court is too huge compared to Daikin. ”

"Humph!" Nurhachi looked at Huang Taiji, Dai Shan, Mang Gurtai and others coldly and said: "The population of the Ming Kingdom is tens of thousands, and the territory is tens of thousands of miles, and what about my Dajin? There is only a corner of eastern Liaodong with a population of tens of thousands! ”

"I don't believe Nero would defect with a warrior of Niulu. Therefore, I believe that Nero was defeated by the Ming army. Don't you believe? ”

Everyone stood respectfully to the side and said that they didn't dare, and Nurhachi looked at several banner owners: Huang Taiji was in a daze, as if he was thinking about something; Dai Shan and Yue Tuo were a little absent-minded for fear of being punished; The rest of them were a little unimpressed by their words.

"You must remember that one day when you start a war against the Ming Court, you must not take the enemy lightly, because the Ming Court can be defeated a hundred times, but we can't afford to lose once!"

"Yes!" The people answered.

Nurhachi looked at Yue Tuo and asked, "Do you know which Ming army did it?" ”

Yue Tuo lay on the ground and replied: "Back to the Great Khan, the spies sent by the minions reported yesterday that this Ming army is a subordinate of Liu Ling, the general of Liaoyang, and the general who leads the army is his only grandson, Liu Yunwei. ”

Nurhachi nodded and said, "That's right, that Liu Ling is a tiger general." When the Ming court fought against the Japanese in Korea, Liu Ling repeatedly made military exploits and shocked the party. His grandson is not far from coming, and it seems that the Ming Court is a good general again. ”

"Si Baylor, what do you say should be done with this Liu Yunwei?" Nurhachi asked suddenly.

Huang Taiji thought for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers think that the Ming court has been decayed, and the eastern part of Liaodong is even more rotten. To get rid of this Liu Yunwei, you don't need to use soldiers and horses, as long as you order spies to spread rumors and buy Liu Ling's political enemies. ”

"Counter-plotting?"

"Yes."

Nurhachi sneered and said, "No need! Spread my will, award rewards, and anyone who can take Liu Yunwei's head will be rewarded. ”

"Your Majesty, although Liu Yunwei is hateful, he is just a small character, is it too important to award him a reward." Huang Taiji asked cautiously.

"I just want everyone in the world to know that if I dare to be my Dajin enemy, I will kill him! All the armies of the Ming Kingdom that dare to fight, I will destroy them! ”

Everyone was shocked.

"One more thing." Nurhachi asked Daishan, "Big Belle, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

Dai Shan knelt on the ground and said: "Qi Qi Great Khan, the sons of the army are not strict in governing the army, so that the mourning army is defeated, and the Niu Lu under the two red flags should be cut down as a punishment." ”

Huang Taiji looked at Dai Shan's father and son and sneered: "I don't mention the crime of bullying the monarch by concealing the facts, I just want to use the lax management of the army to perfunctory?" How can it be so easy! Thinking about to step forward to speak, he suddenly felt a chill in his back, and when he looked up, he saw his father Khan Nurhachi glaring at him angrily.

Huang Taiji was taken aback, the traces of his suppression of Dai Shan were too obvious, in his father's heart, power was far more important than family affection, and he would not let a certain banner owner be too powerful. Even if it is his own son, isn't his eldest brother Chu Ying an example, he has committed a big taboo!

So, Huang Taiji changed his words and said: "Qi Great Khan, what Great Baylor said is very true, and his sons seconded it. ”

Other flag owners also came to second.

Nurhachi's face improved slightly: "Spread the decree, seize the four oxen records of the red flag, and the four ox records of the red flag, and assign them to the two yellow flags." ”

Really!

Everyone thought to themselves: "As expected, our emperor will not let go of any opportunity to enrich the two yellow flags." ”

Dai Shan's father and son were suddenly relieved, and hurriedly thanked him: "The guilty minister has received the decree, thank you for Your Majesty's grace." ”

Late at night, as soon as he returned to the mansion, Dai Shan found a reason to whip Yue Tuo. At this time, Yue Tuo sat on the edge of the bed with a gloomy face, not knowing what he was thinking. The little concubine on the side touched it and said charmingly: "It's not too early, the slave family will serve you and rest." ”

Yue Tuo pushed the concubine away violently, kicked the beauty in the face, and blood was splashed and bruised on a charming and delicate face. Seeing that Yue Tuo was angry, the concubine hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Taiji forgives sins!" Taiji forgives sins! ”

Yue Tuo no longer paid attention to the frightened concubine, looked at the moon outside the window, and said fiercely: "Since Your Majesty has awarded the reward, then Ben Taiji will take advantage of the situation." Hum! If I am punished by His Majesty, I will kill Liu Yunwei, a bright dog! ”
