713 Unable to make ends meet
"What? The Ming army attacked at night and Gaizhou was lost? "Fan Wencheng really can't believe it, this is winter, the sea is about to freeze, isn't the Ming army going to retreat?
Subconsciously, he turned his head to look in the direction of Shenyang, as if he saw Huang Taiji's heart, and was stabbed again! Ming Army, when did you become so good at catching fighters? At this time, the Qing Dynasty didn't want to fight the most!
When he heard the news, he didn't notice that some of the Hannu walking at the back of the line had apparently heard his conversation with the messenger. Their faces suddenly showed a look of ecstasy. It's just that they also understand that they are surrounded by Jianjiao, and if they are happy, they are likely to cause death. As a result, their smiles immediately faded. But the seeds of hope were planted in their hearts.
After Fan Wencheng came back to his senses, he stared blankly at the Han slave team in front of him, and he had a hunch that these Han slaves would not be used, at least not in Jinzhou. The Ming army seized Gaizhou, but it is not known what its strength is, what its intentions are, whether it will attack on a large scale, will it capture other cities, or will it only occupy Gaizhou? Relatively speaking, the gains and losses of the Golden State are insignificant!
Thinking so, he immediately ordered these Han slaves to be driven back to the New Golden City. At the same time, he went to meet the defender of the new golden city, and suggested that he immediately send a horse scout to guard him, and at the same time report the situation to Yue Tobel. He estimated that Shenyang's new will would come soon.
As he expected, when the messenger brought the news to Shenyang, Huang Taiji sat down on the throne and remained silent for a long time. The war in Jinzhou is not over, and Gaizhou is lost again, and I don't know how Haizhou is? The Ming army is in this big winter, why don't you stop and stop, and make it worse for the big clear snow! It's really like chess, one general after another, and I can't cope with it anymore!
Thinking of this, Huang Taiji seemed to be crazy, showing a very unwilling look: No, it's not that he can't deal with it, but that he has too few cards in his hand! The foundation of the Qing Dynasty is still too weak, and if there is a problem, it will not be able to deal with it! If you are like the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, even if you lose the entire Liaodong and die so many Ming troops, you will only lose a dime! If I were the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, I would definitely do better than the young emperor!
Thinking so, he quickly perked up. At this point, he had no choice. Immediately give the order to the military council. When the other Jianyu leaders heard the news, they were all taken aback, even if it was Amin, they didn't have the meaning of watching Huang Taiji's jokes.
After all, Jinzhou is far away, and for the Qing Dynasty, whether it is lost or not, relatively speaking, it does not have much impact; Gaizhou is different, this is the hinterland of Liaodong, and if Gaizhou is lost, Haizhou will be in danger. To the north of Haizhou is the gateway to Shenyang and Liaoyang, an important town in eastern Liaoning!
If Gaizhou is not recaptured, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to use troops against Guanning in the future, otherwise it will definitely suffer from the enemy! Shenyang is no longer much safe, and the number of places seized by the Ming army will increase dramatically, at least Fuzhou will be very dangerous!
After some military discussions, the supply of all the tribesmen, including the palace of Baylor, was halved, and Zilharang led 5,000 elite soldiers to Haizhou immediately to find out the situation of the Ming army and make preliminary preparations for the army.
After making this decision, Huang Taiji said in a cold voice: "Send envoys to the allies of the Mongolian tribes, let them send troops and bring their own grain and grass!" If you can't send troops, or if you have few troops, you can't have less food! ”
When Dai Shan heard this, he hurriedly reminded: "Your Majesty, aren't the Mongolian tribes also without food, and forcibly ask them, I am afraid that they will be dissatisfied with our Qing Dynasty, and they may secretly take refuge in the Ming Kingdom!" ”
This was actually said by Huang Taiji before, and because of this, the Qing Dynasty tightened his belt to live, and did not ask the Mongolian tribes for anything.
When Amin heard this, he also nodded and agreed: "Yes, if you do this, the Mongolian tribes don't know that the situation in our Qing Dynasty is not good now, and it is not as strong as before, and I am afraid that the deterrent power against them will not be enough, so that those who have dissidents will ......"
When Huang Taiji heard this, his face was cold, but he still patiently explained: "This time and that time!" Jinzhou is too far away from the grassland, but Gaizhou was captured by the Ming army, this war, I don't know how big it will be, do you think the Mongolian tribes will not know? ”
Speaking of this, after he paused, a trace of ruthlessness appeared on his face and said: "The Ming army has even started a war at this time, and we can't deal with it alone." Since this is the case, I will focus on my Qing Dynasty, try to preserve the strength of my Qing Dynasty, and let the Mongolian tribes also bleed! At this time, it is the time to see the loyalty of their tribes to my Qing Dynasty, if anyone dares to disobey, it is a dissenting heart, I am not good at dealing with the Ming army hiding in the city, will I not be able to deal with the herdsmen on the grassland? ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" Azig echoed loudly, "Those Mongols dared to disobey, so they robbed their cattle, horses and sheep, and exterminated them, so that we can eat in the Qing Dynasty!" ”
He suffered a big defeat at the end of last year, and after being demoted, because he kept hugging Huang Taiji's thighs and not walking with Dolgon and Duoduo, who were half-fathers and mothers, he was found a reason by Huang Taiji and restored his identity as Baylor. Because of this, he has always been one of Huang Taiji's loyal doglegs.
Hearing his words, Huang Taiji suddenly came back to his senses. Every time there has been a lot of fighting this year, it seems that we can't make ends meet. It's no longer like before, every time you fight, you can have a lot of loot, and because of this, the Qing Dynasty likes to fight, and only by fighting can you get something!
If you think about it carefully, it is that every time the Ming army fights, it has gained. At the beginning of the year, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, attacked the North Korean grain guard twice and took away all the grain. Then, taking advantage of the expedition of the army to Korea, it was Lu Xiangsheng who raided the hinterland of Liaodong, using the previous set of the Qing Dynasty to nourish the war with war, and he did not pay any price, but the Qing Dynasty suffered huge losses!
In addition, the battle of Jinpu Town in North Korea caused huge losses to the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming army captured a large amount of grain......
An incident in the past year flashed in Huang Taiji's heart. He found that after a year's battle, it seemed that the Ming army did not consume much strength and pay a lot of price!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He knew in his heart that the Qing Dynasty could not continue like this, otherwise even if he would no longer lose the war, if he could not make ends meet in every war, the national strength of the Qing Dynasty would not be able to resist such consumption, and he had to find a way to change it!
But at this time, he obviously did not have time to think about and change the situation. The most important thing now is to solve the Ming army in Gaizhou first!
As a result, the military discussion ended quickly, the Jianyu quickly completed the assembly, and the cavalry roared out.
This news was also immediately passed through the chat group, and when the Jianyu cavalry army just came out of the Shenyang gate, it had been passed on to Emperor Chongzhen by Qian Fugui.
