What happened in the city of Dalinghe also happened in the city of Guangning, more than 200 miles north of Jinzhou.

It's just that the Ming army withdrew in a hurry at that time, and there was no large-scale destruction of various garrison facilities in Quang Ninh City, so Ang Alla saved a lot of trouble.

However, the twenty Niu Lu, the six thousand bannermen, and the clothed servants who accompanied the army with the armor bannermen, together were nearly 10,000 people, and eating, drinking, and living were not a small number.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Eight Banners system had its own advantages, and the adult bannermen were soldiers when they came out, and they were for the people, that is, they raised soldiers for the people in peacetime, and all the people were soldiers in wartime.

From the root point, in fact, I learned the Ming Dynasty's guard system.

However, because there were relatively few young and strong adults in Jianyu, they engaged in a comprehensive army, that is, in wartime, every household under the Eight Banners had to draw Ding as soldiers.

These people usually returned home after fighting, and they were the common people under the Eight Banners, and they did not have a fixed military salary, nor a fixed amount of money and food.

Therefore, in this way, it is equivalent to saving a lot of food and salary for Huang Taiji.

But when it came to the war, it was different, at the beginning, the Eight Banners were self-guaranteed, each flag brought its own weapons, food and grass, and the seizures on the battlefield also belonged to each banner.

Regardless of whether it is food, wages, weapons, population, livestock, which flag is captured, which flag is at its disposal.

In the later period of Nuer Hachi, the scope of the campaign was wider, the territory was larger, and the distribution of benefits changed.

There is a public treasury on top of the Eight Banners, that is, the treasury of the Houjin State, and the seized money, grain, and materials begin to need to be handed over to the public treasury.

By the time of Huang Taiji, with the emergence of domestic centralization in the Later Jin Dynasty, this system began to become more and more strict, and the share of seizures and surrenders to the public treasury also increased.

Correspondingly, the wartime supply of the Jianyu also began to gradually change from the original Eight Banners to the direction of unified distribution and supply of the public treasury.

After all, the other flag owners other than Huang Taiji are not fools.

If the Eight Banners take care of their own food and salary during the war, and if they are captured, they will be handed over according to your share of Huangtai Jiding, and you will be allowed to take advantage of any benefits, what kind of battle will we fight!

Therefore, such a system was soon formed, and when there was no war in peacetime, except for the guards of each banner, that is, the so-called fang-swinging soldiers, the bannermen of the Eight Banners were all disbanded and went home, whether it was farming, grazing, fishing and hunting, they were all ordinary people, and there was no money and food distributed by each banner.

When it came time to go out to fight, except for a part of the grain and grass prepared by each banner, the rest of the bulk was supported by the public treasury.

This system itself was reasonable and reasonable, not only in line with the interests of the Eight Banners, but also in line with Huang Taiji's need to strengthen the centralization of power, so it was quickly implemented.

However, at this time, that is, when Ang Alla entered Guangning City with twenty Niu Lu of the positive blue flag, and Derge class entered Dalinghe City with another twenty Niu Lu of the positive blue flag, and needed a large supply of grain and grass, Mang Gurtai stopped doing it.

On the morning of the eighth day of the seventh month, Lu Shanji, the governor of Jiliao, wrote a reply letter to Huang Taiji, and was sent back to Shenyang City by Derge.

Lu Shanji's reply to Huang Taiji was, of course, written in accordance with the emperor's will brought by his minister Zheng Zhihui.

In the letter, although Lu Shanji categorically rejected Huang Taiji's request for Daming to punish Mao Wenlong and Liu Xingzuo, he did not reject the peace talks themselves.

He also told Huang Taiji that His Majesty the Ming Emperor had sent his ministers, namely Zheng Zhihui, the celebrant and eunuch, to preside over the peace affairs.

Lu Shanji also stated in the letter that His Majesty the Ming Emperor was willing to recognize the existence of the Later Jin State and agreed to discuss the demarcation of the border with the Jianyu Later Jin State.

Moreover, until borders are agreed, mutual recognition of the current status quo and mutual non-aggression are maintained.

Zheng Zhihui's past letters were also tied to the arrows and shot over, of course, there was no sealing or anything, and after reading it, Derge felt that the matter was very important, so he naturally did not dare to delay, and sent someone back to Shenyang on the same day.

After convening his scribes of the Jixian Yuan for a day of deliberation, Huang Taiji summoned the ministers of Baylor, the banner lord in Shenyang, on the morning of the ninth day of the seventh month, to discuss countermeasures.

Lu Shanji's reply, although Huang Taiji instinctively felt a little weird, felt that how could the Ming court be so easy to speak, where was the previous attitude of being arrogant and not giving an inch, and how did it seem that everything had changed all of a sudden.

But Huang Taiji's heart at this time did not really want to negotiate peace, so Lu Shanji's reply also made him see that the previous plan still had hope of being realized.

Even if the plan to get rid of Mao Wenlong or Liu Xingzuo by borrowing a knife to kill people cannot be realized, then it is very promising to at least stabilize the Ming Dynasty through peace negotiations, buy yourself time to conquer Haringdan Khan in the west, and bring all the left and right wings of the entire Mongolian headquarters under his command.

On the morning of the ninth day of the seventh month, the Shenyang Khan Palace, which is now the Dugong Hall of the Imperial Palace of the Dajin Kingdom, was full of money rat tails and big bald heads.

It was the height of summer, and the city of Shenyang was also unbearable, so the banner lord Baylor and the ministers who gathered in the Dugong Hall today were all with money rat tails and bald heads, except for the slender pigtail on the top of the head, the rest of the place was shaved brightly.

Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan and other Han reviewers from Jixian Academy knelt in a corner of the hall and looked at Huang Taiji, who had a fat head and big ears and thin eyebrows.

Huang Taiji's original heroic and extraordinary imperial appearance was destroyed by the little braid on his head, and there was really an indescribable funny and weird feeling in his heart.

Li Yongfang and other first batch of Ming army generals, when they surrendered to Nuer Hachi, they did not need to shave their hair and braids for a long time.

These people were specifically allowed to maintain Han clothes, hairstyles, and armor, but it is not known when it began, nor did it know which Ming Dynasty demoted officials and generals, and these Han people began to show their loyalty by shaving their hair and braids, so that other Han people who came to submit to Shun also had to follow the shaving and braiding.

In fact, no matter how willing to be traitors like Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan, they can't change the Han blood that has been flowing in their veins for decades.

So although I shaved my hair and braided it, how I look at it and feel that the money rat tail on the heads of the ministers of the Dajin Kingdom Baylor is still a little awkward.

Now I heard that I was going to "negotiate peace", and the Ming Emperor seemed to be quite sincere, which made Fan Wencheng and other Han strategists a little worried.

What they are worried about is that Huang Taiji must not resist the temptation and really negotiate peace with the Ming Dynasty.

Because if that's the case, wouldn't they, who had turned their backs on the Ming Dynasty and their ancestors, not be on both sides, and not people inside and out?

During the period when Fan Wencheng's mind was telegraphed, Huang Taiji had already asked the current Jixian Academy's Angbang Zhang Jing Dahai, that is, the minister in charge of the Jixian Academy, to finish reading the "Heshu" in the Ming Dynasty.

After reading the "Book of Harmony" on the side of the Ming Dynasty, the banner lord Baylor ministers in the Dugong Hall all looked at each other, unable to believe their ears.

Could it be that the sun is rising in the west today, how come the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Kingdom, who have always been stubborn, actually agreed to negotiate peace?!

However, now that Huang Taiji's authority is getting stronger and stronger, no one among the banner owners dares to talk nonsense during the deliberations of the Dugong Palace, openly questioning any decision of Huang Taiji, except for Dai Shan and Mang Gurtai, the two big beylers who were originally above Huang Taiji during the Nuer Hachi period.

Nuer Hachi's own seal, and the five ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty of the same era, have also died of old age and illness at this time.

Moreover, the previous five-class system, also under the proposal of Huang Taiji, was made into eight ministers, and the new eight ministers, such as Rosh, Xifu, Dahai, Kurtang, Yangulli, Darhan, Lengri, Namuthai and others, most of them came from the two yellow banners, and all of them were Huang Taiji's cronies and supporters.

These people are not only the eight ministers of the Later Jin State promoted by Huang Taiji, but at the same time, they are all in the Jixian Courtyard, helping Huang Taiji, the Great Khan of the Jin State or the Emperor of the Jin State, to deal with the affairs of the two yellow banners, as well as the military and political affairs of the entire Later Jin State.

Jixian Yuan, which was originally Huang Taiji's own political affairs staff team, has now almost become a small court of the Later Jin State.

It's just that this small court directly obeys Huang Taiji's orders, and only Huang Taiji's orders.

No matter what happens, it is first discussed by this Jixian Academy, which gathers Han scholars and the wise and resourceful people of the Eight Banners.

After they came up with countermeasures, they handed them to Huang Taiji, and after Huang Taiji approved them, they took them to the Dugong Hall to discuss and decide with the banner lords Baylor.

The plan of "peace" that Huang Taiji had set up outside Guangning City had not yet been openly discussed in the court of the Later Jin.

However, after Huang Taiji led the army back to Shenyang, the news had already spread.

After so many years of fighting with the Ming army, the Eight Banners of the Later Jin Dynasty suddenly talked about peace, which of course also caused some discussions.

Some people are reluctant to negotiate peace, and at the same time, some people are willing to negotiate peace, and for a while, all kinds of discussions were rampant in the circle of the Eight Banners in Shenyang City.

It's just that now Huang Taiji's authority is getting stronger and stronger, and no one dares to ask questions.

And Huang Taiji is also a generation of heroes after all, knowing that this matter can't be opened up, if the upper echelons of the Eight Banners can't think about it, then sooner or later there will be a big problem.

"In the past few days, there has been a lot of discussion in the Baylor Mansion of the various banner owners, and all they said were rumors that I was ready to negotiate peace with the Ming Kingdom.

"What Dahai read out just now is the peace letter sent by the monarch and ministers of the Ming Kingdom, and you have all heard it, so let's talk about it, should this peace between my Dajin and the Ming Kingdom be carried out?"

After saying this, Huang Taiji raised his head and glanced at the flag lords and Baylors who were kneeling or sitting in the Dugong Palace, waiting for everyone to speak and express their attitudes.
