Mang Gurtai is more and more aware that he is in a bad situation, there used to be an Amin and the Great Khan singing against each other, he can also follow the coaxing, and there is a chance to play a round, both sides are not offended, now Amin is unlucky, he was suddenly pushed to the cusp of the storm, and became the black backstage of some kind of force. The Great Khan criticized him by name at many meetings of the Ministers and warned him not to go further and further down the wrong path. He Mang Gurtai is a rough man, how can he see which way to go, Mang Gurtai became suspicious, for fear that the eighth child would also hack him one day.

Mang Gurtai is looking for the eighth today is to get back his blue flag of the white armor, the eighth now has a bad habit, like to gather the white armor of the flags by him personally commanded, and others do not mention him to dominate and do not return, is the blue flag these days to help the siege of the city dead and injured hundreds of strong, Mang Gurtai felt that he couldn't stand it, and came to the door to ask for his own people.

"Ben Khan heard that it was your subordinate Niu Lu who didn't listen to the order and delayed the fighter, so he suffered a loss, is there such a thing?" Tiancong Khan did not listen to Mang Gultai's complaints, but asked him rhetorically.

"What bastard is talking nonsense, it's not like that at all." Mang Gurtai immediately denied it.

"If anyone makes a false accusation, Ben Khan will punish him, but if this is true, Ben Khan will also punish your subordinates." Tiancong Khan was about to leave after speaking.

"What about my white armor?"

"More on that later."

"Great Khan, when did Zhenglanqi ever disobey orders, you deliberately made things difficult for me, right?" Mang Gurtai was on fire and stopped Tiancong Khan.

"Mang Gurtai, you are so bold, you dare to mess around, you think that Ben Khan can't cure your sins." Tiancong Khan was also angry.

"Old eight, you finally told the truth, you have seen me unpleasantly, and you want to get rid of me, you are old!" Mang Gurtai made a mistake, lowered his hand to draw the saber at his waist, and the blade came out of the sheath to reveal a cold light, and the guards such as Turai were so frightened that their faces were colorless, and they were at a loss for a while.

"You're crazy, the one who stabbed in front of the Great Khan is guilty of death, don't get out of here!" The Derge class behind Mang Gurtai reacted, smashed his fist on his brother, and pushed him out of the big tent without saying anything.

"He, he dared to use a knife against me, this is still Ben Khan's brother, is this still Ben Khan's subordinate?" Tiancong Khan was also taken aback, his hands trembled with anger, his eyes were red, and his mouth chattered and scolded, "Mang Gurtai, you are a rebel, you killed your mother, and now you want to kill your brother, you are not a human, you are a beast, Ben Khan can't spare you this time!" ”

After scolding Mang Gurtai, Tiancong Khan angrily scolded the guards around him: "You dog minions, he is drawing his sword, why don't you take it down, are you the slave of Ben Khan, or the slave of Mang Gurtai, a slave of the reverse species?" ”

The more Tiancong Khan scolded, the more sad he became, and he couldn't help crying, Turai and the others bowed their heads and knelt on the ground, not even daring to come out, and the Baylors rushed to hear the news, and scolded Mang Gurtai for being a brute, and proposed to convene a meeting of the Baylors and ministers to discuss how to deal with Mang Gurtai.

When the ministers arrived, Mang Gurtai and Derge also entered the big tent, and the brothers knelt at the feet of the Great Khan and kowtowed to admit their mistakes. Dai Shan this time was not as amiable as before, insisting that Mang Gurtai was just dizzy for a while, and he had absolutely no intention of offending the Great Khan, he was willing to guarantee Mang Gurtai with his whole family, and finally everyone agreed to remove Mang Gurtai and Shuobeile's titles, and at the same time heavily fined the property, Mang Gurtai was considered to be passing.

The Jin army's attack on the Daling River continued, the largest fortress outside the Daling River - Yuroe Zhangtai collapsed after three days of continuous bombardment by the Hongyi cannon, and the Ming army general Wang Jing who guarded the fort surrendered, and then other large and small fortresses also surrendered or conquered, and Zu Dashou and his gang were completely in a desperate situation.

The Jin army also captured a merchant who escaped, according to this person, the city has long been out of food, the Ming army first killed the horse for food, the horse was killed and began to eat people, 15,000 people were slaughtered, the bones left behind were also burned as firewood, and now they are eating the soldiers who starved to death, the merchant was trembling when he told about the tragic situation in the city, and the Jin army also felt creepy when he heard it.

Tiancong Khan sent a letter to Zu Dashou again, asking him to stop resisting and surrendering the city, on October 25, Jin general Shi Tingzhu was invited by Zu Dashou to enter the city to negotiate, and in the evening Shi Tingzhu brought back four Ming army officers Zu Kefa, Zhang Cunren, Zu Zerun, and Liu Tianlu. Shi Tingzhu told Tiancong Khan that Amin's indiscriminate killing of demoted officials in Yongping had made the Ming army fearful, and they would rather fight to the end than surrender. Tiancong Khan immediately said that Amin Belle had been severely punished for this matter, and he could swear to the Heavenly Alliance that he would never kill the Ming army. So Tiancong Khan and Zu Kefa and others went out of the tent and swore to the sky together, Tiancong Khan promised to treat the surrendered army well and never kill a single person, Zu Kefa and the four people also swore allegiance to the Jin State on behalf of the entire Ming army, and they did not move until death, after Zu Kefa and others went back to report, Zu Dashou agreed to surrender.

However, at this time, there was an unexpected news - Chahar Khan and Li Yu joined forces to send troops to the Xilamulun River, which made Tiancong Khan and the Baylors in a dilemma, the Mongolian tribes attached to it did not have young and strong people to defend their homes, and they would definitely suffer a big loss, and this side of the Daling River This piece of meat is in the mouth and can not be eaten, the remaining troops in Liaodong are also insufficient, and there is no spare strength to send troops to rescue the Xilamulun River, and the three Beile who stayed in Shenyang - Sakhalian, Dudu, and Haoge may be able to barely deal with Chahar Khan, but I am afraid it will not work to deal with Li Yu.

"Erlu, this kid is behind our backs again, Zilharang, what are you calling Erlu?" Tiancong Khan couldn't help but smile bitterly after reading the letter.

"Erlu devil." Zilharang laughed too.

"That's right, it's the Erlu devil, the ghost is not slippery, where did this kid learn the ghost name?" Tiancong Khan shook his head and said, this is a bit knowingly asking to show off himself.

"Learn from the Great Khan." The Baylors replied in unison.

"Ben Khan also thinks that Erlu seems to have learned five or six points of ability, the most painful thing about this guy is that he is willing to read and learn skills, and he also likes to use his brain to ponder, this time the method of fighting the Daling River, such as digging trenches to besiege and bombarding the city with cannons is Ben Khan came up with him, he can do something today is also inseparable from Ben Khan's teachings, you will also have to study hard in the future, you can't read, you don't understand reason, you will be blind when you go out." Tiancong Khan taught the Baylors earnestly, which was his consistent practice, and advised the young Baylor and Xungui to take Li Yu as an example when they read, and often said that his "Huang Taiji Art of War" was only passed on by Erlu alone, and the others were not good at learning, so they were dizzy when they fought.

Li Yu's current image in Dajin is very strange, obviously he has hooked up with Chahar and Mingguo, but in the eyes of everyone, he is just a brother of the same clan who went out alone, and the war between the two sides is similar to the previous fight between the same clan, and today he turned his face and fought again after a few days, and the two sides are not enemies, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why he took the risk to save Haoge, and the matter of putting the captured Zhushen back with good food and drink - those people seem to have made a fortune, maybe they got benefits from Erlu's side. Fan Yongdou went to Jinguo to do business, many people asked him about Fengzhou, this guy didn't keep the door at all, as long as there was business to do, he would talk endlessly, the people of the Eight Banners heard that Erlu was the real Zhushen, and the set of Fengzhou was similar to that of Zhushen when he was in the mountains - the same lawlessness, public discussion, and the same cultivation and food, but the Dajin Kingdom was sinicized, and there were more and more rules, and the Han people were about to ride on the neck of the old Zhushen. Everyone even felt that if Erlu could return, he would definitely dissuade the Great Khan from believing the nonsense of the Han Chinese, and support them in upholding the traditions of the old Zhushen. Of course, there are also those who are resolutely hostile to Li Yu, such as the two brothers Azig and Dolgon, who often speak ill of Li Yu, but even their younger brother Duoduo does not like to listen to them.

"Great Khan, Erlu is a hungry wolf who is only immature, and he must not be let go, let me go to the Xilamulun River to kill him." The hemp son Azig shouted and shouted again, and the little white-faced Dolgon on the side seemed to be eager to try.

"Erlu is too clever, if there are fewer people who go, he can't beat him, and if there are more people who go, he will definitely not be able to find him, Chahar Khan will disappear as soon as he runs, so let's take down Da Linghe first," Tiancong Khan shook his head at the two brothers, turned his face to the Baylors and said, "At this time, we must not relax, those guys who eat human flesh are the most vicious, obviously they are afraid of death, and they will also involve so many people to die, and the people of the Ming Kingdom have always kept their promises, so they must be guarded against." ”

On October 28, Yue Tuo, the lord of the Red Banner Banner, came to the city of Dalinghe on behalf of the Great Khan to welcome Zu Dashou out of the city and surrender with a hug salute.

Zu Dashou finally took this step, before the deputy general soldier He Kegang resolutely opposed the surrender, he didn't even talk about more than ten years of friendship, and ordered He Kegang to be beheaded, and more than 30,000 soldiers and civilians in Dalinghe only survived 11,000 soldiers in order to save his life. Three days later, Zu Dashou, who swore allegiance to Dajin, offered a plan to Tiancong Khan to take Jinzhou City, but halfway through, he took advantage of the fog to hide in Jinzhou City and never came out again - Zu Dashou saved his life and wanted to protect his wealth, his millions of family property, his wife and concubines were all left in Ningyuan, and he really didn't want to be charged with rebellion and let people raid his home, as for his brothers, nephews and cronies who were still in the hands of Jin Jun, then he couldn't take care of it.

Tiancong Khan disdains this, Zu Dashou is just a leper dog, if it weren't for the huge power of the Zu family in Liaoxi, he wouldn't look at this guy at all, just run away, and catch it back later, Tiancong Khan instead comforted the panicked "Zujia General" and "Zujia Army", as long as they are loyal to Dajin State, they will never be treated badly in the future, Tiancong Khan then ordered all the troops to shave their hair, and the castles of Daling River were all demolished.

Now it was time to deal with Chahar Khan and Li Yu, after a short rest, Tiancong Khan personally led 2,000 elite cavalry to the Mongolian steppe, and the other Eight Banner Army and Mongolian tribes followed suit, at this time it was close to mid-November.

When Jin Guojing's cavalry arrived at Ulan Hada, Li Yu had been away for several days - the Fengzhou army was fighting for two months, and after entering November, Li Yu decided to withdraw the army quickly, and he sent an urgent report to Chahar Khan, the Fengzhou army was about to withdraw, and if you want to continue to rob, you should stay alone.

The only trouble when withdrawing was Erniu, after the two hugged their heads and cried all night, Erniu finally decided to stay - Abatai and his family are pitiful enough now, and they have brother Bolo, and they can't be affected by their own family. The more depressed is Sergulun, Gege is back, and continues to be his Fujin, this green hat is set, but he quickly figured it out, he is not a Han who reads dead books, what do you care about this, and he made up his mind to step on two boats, Er Niu is both the Gege of the Jin Kingdom and the one of the commanders of Fengzhou, and it is not bad to have such a network around him.

When a group of Mongol nobles led by Sergulun saw Tiancong Khan, they blew themselves up, saying that they resisted desperately and finally repelled the Chahars and Tumuts and defended the territory of Dajin, but they also admitted that the other party had stolen a large number of cattle, sheep and livestock, so they could no longer provide support to the Khan, and hoped that the Jin State would support some goods so that they could survive the winter - in fact, they hid all their livestock, and by the way, they also wanted to get some more money from Dajin State.

Tiancong Khan encouraged these nobles, promised to give them some money and food as a reward for their meritorious service in defending the land, and then went to Chahar Khan, but Chahar Khan was too shrewd, this guy had a talent in running away, after receiving Li Yu's letter, he pinched the time, and finally grabbed a handful, and also took away the Selene Abahai Department of Alukorqin, Tiancong Khan chased after him when he happened to pass the Xing'an Mountains, and Tiancong Khan could only sigh.

The last aftermath of the battle of the Daling River dissipated, the Ming State became a big loser, the elite and mobile forces of Liaoxi were all lost, since then Liaoxi has completely fallen into passivity, and the officialdom of Liaoxi has also been shaken, and Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao, stepped down and went home in an impeachment sound, Song Wei and Wu Xiang were dismissed from their posts and discussed crimes, although Zu Dashou was impeached by Qiu Hejia for his capital crimes, but Zu Dashou was the head snake in Liaoxi, and the court did not dare to move him, but continued to stay in Jinzhou with his meritorious service in defending the city, and soon after, he fished out his brother-in-law Wu Xiang and continued to be the chief soldier of the regiment.

After returning to Beijing, Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, was appreciated by the emperor and was ready to be reused, but unfortunately Qiu Hejia died soon after he was physically and mentally exhausted, and the emperor became more and more disappointed with the courtiers. ”

The Dajin Kingdom won this battle and gained the initiative in the war against the Ming State, and the surrender of more than 10,000 elite Guanning troops also greatly expanded the military resources of the Jin State, laying the foundation for the establishment of the Han Eight Banners in the future, and the successful use of firearms made the Wuzhen Chao Harbin Army shine, and since then the Jin Army has an effective means to break through the castle defense, which is simply a bad news for the Ming State, and the fly in the ointment is that the Mongolian tribes attached to it suffered a big loss, and the confidence in the Jin State began to waver.

Chahar Khan and Li Yu made a small profit, both of them robbed a batch of property and livestock, and at the same time, Chahar Khan also coerced some people by the way, and Li Yu also saved two months' military salary. The two of them ran back to Doronor, and the brother-in-law immediately high-fived each other when he saw his brother-in-law, celebrating the success of the robbery.

At the celebration banquet, Chahar Khan praised Li Yu Jinong for his bravery, he was actually the first fierce general of the steppe, and Li Yu praised Chahar Khan for his wisdom and wisdom, which can be called a rare British lord in Mongolia in a century. That night, there was a sudden heavy snowfall, and the snow went on and on, turning Doronorle into a white expanse. Li Yu and Chahar Khan looked at the flying snow and trembled, this heavy snow came too fiercely, considering that there was a leap month behind, this winter must be difficult, the two of them had no intention of staying, and when the snow was small, they each ran home with their men and horses.

On the leap eleventh month, Li Yu braved the wind and snow to rush back to the Manhan Mountains - the road was too difficult to walk, the snow was several feet deep in some places, and he was forced to stop several times in heavy snowstorms on the way, and it took more than ten days to complete the rapid march for three or five days. At this time, the Great Commander's Office was still busy - this was a rare snowstorm in decades, and there was a snow disaster in most areas of Fengzhou, and Deputy Commander Liu Xingzuo immediately issued an emergency ******, calling on the entire Fengzhou military and civilians to immediately participate in the disaster fight, and the disaster has been controlled, and the Great Commander's Office is discussing the next countermeasures.

Li Yu entered the Great Commander's Palace, and the officials immediately gathered to report to him: This storm and snow came too fiercely, although the guards mobilized quickly, and the battalion soldiers also went all out to provide disaster relief, but the losses were still not small, and tens of thousands of people were affected by the disaster, especially the newly moved Guannei people, who had not yet learned to deal with the wind and snow outside the fortress, and their houses were seriously damaged, and there were not a few people who had no clothing, no food, and nowhere to live, and they must immediately start disaster relief, otherwise many people would die this winter, but the resettlement of immigrants almost exhausted the financial and material resources of Fengzhou. The money and grain reserves for the winter are seriously insufficient, and there is a leap month this year, and the winter is one month longer than in previous years, and it is still difficult to survive until the beginning of spring.

"Has the grain that Zhang Shi'an bought in Shandong arrived?" Li Yu asked with a rubbing face.

"How can there be grain transportation, Shanxi is in chaos again, and Shandong is also in chaos!" Liu Xingzuo shook his head at Li Yu and said, Yansui and the thieves rebelled, Luo Rucai and other bandits re-entered Shanxi, the big and small thieves responded, and Shanxi became a piece again, and the former Dongjiang general Mao Wenlong's old generals Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng and others launched a mutiny in Wuqiao, Cangzhou, and then killed back to Shandong, and cut off the ears and nose of the general soldier Huang Long who went to the bullet pressure and drove them out of the army.

"Liaoxi has just suffered a big defeat, Shanxi and Shandong are in chaos again, it seems that the Ming Kingdom is inferior to me." Li Yu smiled bitterly.
