Chapter 288: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
Recommended reading: "Hmph, wishful thinking!" Faced with Zheng Zhifan's proposal, Yu Chengming categorically refused without thinking about it, and said with a sneer, "This official will let people send you to Shenyang to accept the punishment of the law." ”
"Mr. Yu, there is only one chance, and there is no such shop in this village." Zheng Zhifan showed a disappointed look on his face when he heard this, and glared at Yu Chengming expressionlessly and said.
"Drag him down." Yu Chengming didn't bother to talk nonsense with Zheng Zhifan anymore, and waved his hand at the guards standing on the side, and the guards immediately stepped forward to hold Zheng Zhifan and dragged him out of the door.
"Mr. Yu, you will definitely regret it!" Zheng Zhifan didn't struggle, and shouted at Yu Chengming in his mouth, his words full of threats.
"Wait." When Zheng Zhifan was dragged to the door, Yu Chengming's brows furrowed slightly, and then he suddenly opened his mouth and shouted to stop the guards holding Zheng Zhifan, stared at him with a cold expression and said, "You, a greedy person who is afraid of death, are not afraid of being sent to Shenyang, it seems that someone outside the city will pick you up!" ”
"What do you say, this official doesn't understand." Zheng Zhifan's face suddenly changed greatly, and he pretended to look at Yu Chengming calmly and said, looking a little nervous.
"If this official is not mistaken, Jiannu has already placed ambush soldiers on the road to Shenyang, as long as you go out of the city, you will be saved, the slave chief is good at power tricks, and he is very good at buying people's hearts."
Seeing Zheng Zhifan's face change, Yu Chengming sneered disdainfully, glared at him and said, "However, this official will not let you succeed, this official will leave you in Tieling and live and die with Tieling City!" ”
"Put him in prison and keep him in custody, and forbid anyone to see him without an order from his own officials." As he spoke, Yu Chengming waved his hand and gave an order to the guards.
"General Yu, you can't do this to me, you can't hold Tieling, I can help you, help you." This time, Zheng Zhifan struggled and shouted loudly, looking very flustered.
Yu Chengming ignored it at all, waved his hand and asked the guards to drag Zheng Zhifan down, because Zheng Zhifan struggled so much that he had to add two more guards and carry the shouting Zheng Zhifan out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that Jiannu has set his sights on our Tieling, and before the reinforcements arrive, we must defend the city and serve the country loyally." After Zheng Zhifan was taken away, Yu Chengming glanced around at Shi Ketai, Ding Bi and Wu Gongqing who were present with a cold expression, and said in a deep voice.
"Rest assured, Lord Commander, we will swear to live and die with Tieling City!" Hearing this, the three of Shi Ketai got up in unison, hugged their fists at Yu Chengming, and said loudly in unison.
Yu Chengming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was also worried that something would go wrong in this scene with Zheng Zhifan, but now it seems to be going very well, the cooperation between the two is perfect, and now Zheng Zhifan has been regarded by the three of Shi Ketai as traitors to the Houjin Army, and now it depends on how the person who has a secret relationship with Houjin will react.
If Li Hongyu's prediction is correct, the generals in Tieling City who have secret communication with the Houjin army will definitely find a way to save Zheng Zhifan when the Houjin army is attacking the city, because in this way, he can not only ask Nurhachi for credit, but also close the relationship with Zheng Zhifan, and take care of each other in Houjin in the future.
In other words, what Yu Chengming and Zheng Zhifan are doing now is waiting, waiting for the generals who have fornicated with Houjin to save Zheng Zhifan.
Kaiyuan Castle.
In the palace of the general army, two young Jurchen nobles and two men dressed in the costumes of Jurchen generals sat around the wine table drinking and laughing.
The two young Jurchen nobles seemed to have a very noble status, and when they talked and laughed, the two Jurchen generals were submissive and respectful.
"Eighth brother, Ye Hebu is my father's big trouble, we can't watch Ye Hebu escape." After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the older Jurchen nobleman put down the wine glass in his hand and said to your younger Jurchen nobleman with an unwilling expression, "In my opinion, we might as well take the opportunity to send troops to destroy Ye Hebu, except for my father's heart disease." ”
"Yehebe is busy running for his life now, as long as I lead 10,000 horses, I will definitely be able to sweep them away." As he spoke, the eyes of the older Jurchen nobles lit up and said confidently.
"Second brother, my father explained before leaving, our goal is Tieling, don't get entangled with Ye He's people, lest they jump over the wall and fight with us.
Hearing this, the younger Jurchen nobleman drank the wine in his glass, smiled and said, "As long as we can take Tieling, then Ye He's people will eventually be wiped out by us." ”
"Eighth brother, you said that the governor of the Ming Dynasty is really happy, he actually wants to attack Hetuala, and when his father defeats the Ming army led by him, then no one in Liaodong can stop the pace of our Dajin march."
When the older Jurchen nobleman heard this, a disappointed look suddenly flashed on his face, and then he turned his mind and looked at the younger Jurchen nobleman with a smile.
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, I heard that the governor of Liaodong sent by the Ming Emperor is just a hairy boy, so he naturally despises our Dajin and thinks about making meritorious contributions on the battlefield."
The younger Jurchen nobleman sneered disdainfully at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and then asked the Jurchen general who was sitting at the lower head to pour wine for him and the older Jurchen nobleman, "General Li, in your opinion, why did the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty send a young governor here?" ”
For Li Hongyu to serve as the governor of Liaodong, the younger Jurchen nobles were puzzled, in his opinion, there were many people in the Ming Dynasty, and in any case, it would not be the turn of a young man who had not yet been weakly crowned to preside over the overall situation of Liaodong.
"Back to Sibeile, the new Liaodong governor Li Hongyu is a new champion from the background, the Ming Emperor has always emphasized literature over military force, and every time there is a big war, he will send civilian officials to lead the army, although Li Hongyu is young but the hand-picked Hanlin is very senior in the civil officials, so he can take the post of governor."
After pouring the wine, the Jurchen general known as "General Li" said to the younger Jurchen nobles with a smile, "As far as the lower officials know, those champions of the Ming Dynasty are all nerds who study hard in the cold window, and they don't know anything about military affairs. ”
In Houjin, there is only one person who can be called the "Four Beylers", and that is Nurhachi's Eighth Emperor Taiji.
After Nurhachi established the Houjin, he named four sons and nephews as "Heshuo Beyler" to help him lead the army and take power, which is what later generations called the four Great Beylers of the Later Jin.
The status of the four Baylors is the same, regardless of whether they are up or down, arranged in order of age, Huang Taiji is the youngest, so he is called the "Four Baylors", and only he can have this title in Houjin.
This is also the reason why he opposes the pursuit of Yehebu, after all, Bayle Jintaishi of Yehebu is Huang Taiji's own uncle, how could he watch Jintaishi die?
Of course, the person who can be called the second brother by Huang Taiji is naturally the eldest Belle Daishan of the four major Beile, after Nurhachi led the army back to Hetuala, Daishan and Huang Taiji were left to attack Tieling.
The person who can drink at the same table with Dai Shan and Huang Taiji is naturally not simple, that "General Li" is Li Yongfang, the guerrilla general of the original Fushun City, who surrendered when Nurhachi captured Fushun in the forty-sixth year of Wanli, and became the first general of the Ming Dynasty to surrender to Houjin.
For this reason, Nurhachi named Li Yongfang as a third-class deputy general, and married the daughter of his seventh son, Abatai, to him, making him the forehead of Houjin.
Compared with the generals of the Later Jin, Li Yongfang was not only more familiar with the tactics and conditions of the Ming army, but also knew how to attack the city, which was very important to the Later Jin army.
In previous wars, Nurhachi's opponents were mainly the Jurchen tribes of Liaodong, and there were no defensive buildings like the Ming army's cities, so it was more difficult to attack, and they usually chose stupid methods to dig down the city walls directly.
For those small cities, digging up the city wall is a good way to siege the city, but in the face of those cities above the acropolis in Liaodong, this method is obviously ineffective, and the defenders on the city wall will bring huge casualties to the Houjin army.
Taking the battle of Kaiyuan as an example, Nurhachi gathered forty or fifty thousand troops to attack the city, and the soldiers and civilians in the city relied on the city defense to fight back bravely, causing a lot of casualties to the Houjin army.
Therefore, Nurhachi left Li Yongfang to Dai Shan and Huang Taiji, hoping to help the two attack Tieling City.
It is worth mentioning that another Jurchen general present here is also a Han Chinese, named Liu Aita, originally from Kaiyuan, who was abducted by the Jianzhou Jurchens of Nurhachi in the 33rd year.
Unlike the Han people who were taken away as slaves, because Liu Aita was talented, clever and understanding, he was deeply valued and appreciated by Nurhachi, so he was assigned to the Red Flag of the Great Belle Daishan, and he made a lot of military achievements over the years, and Daishan valued him very much.
"Eighth brother, if my father can capture that kid alive this time, then Emperor Ming will lose face, and I don't know who has such good luck between Du Du, Amin and Mang Gurtai."
After listening to Li Yongfang's words, Dai Shan laughed and said to Huang Taiji with some regret, "If my father hadn't asked me to stay, I would definitely have arrested that kid." ”
The "kid" in Dai Shan's mouth naturally refers to Li Hongyu, more than 100,000 elites under Yang Hao were easily defeated by the Houjin army in the Battle of Salhu, and Li Hongyu is just some remnants of the defeated army put together on the verge of death, how can he be Nurhachi's opponent.
Due to the unexpected victory in the Battle of Sarhu, there was an arrogant atmosphere in the Jin army, thinking that the Ming army was simply vulnerable, so the Ming army was no longer in his eyes.
"The second brother is the 'Guying Baturu' named by his father, and it is naturally not a problem to arrest the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty." Huang Taiji's brows furrowed slightly, and then he smiled and raised his wine glass and saluted Dai Shan, "I wish my father another great victory, and I also wish us a victory and defeat Tieling!" ”
"!" Dai Shan laughed, touched the wine glass with Huang Taiji, and then drank it all, he followed Nurhachi to fight many victories over the years, so he got the title of "Guying Baturu", which is a rare honor.
Huang Taiji also finished drinking the wine in the cup, but his brows were slightly furrowed, and he was obviously not as optimistic about the battle situation in Liaodong as Dai Shan, although Houjin won the battle of Salhu, but it was nothing to the behemoth of Daming, far from the point of breaking his muscles and bones.
Therefore, it is conceivable that Da Ming will definitely mobilize forces to deal with Houjin, and don't think about living a stable life in the future.
