Chapter 197: Mang Gultai's Temptation

Liu Xingzuo in Fuzhou was just about to stab Amin in the back when he received a message from the shadow. When he heard that an army of 20,000 Jurchens was coming towards him, he was frightened into a cold sweat.

The Shadow Letter had arrived at such a timely time that he would have been doomed if it had been a few days later.

He immediately began to silence his soldiers, covering up any traces that might be related to Immortal Island.

In the distance, there is a group of men and horses marching towards Fuzhou, and the Jurchen armor soldiers walking on the official road cannot see the end at a glance, and there is a feeling of boundlessness.

Mang Gurtai sat on his horse and thought about the battle on Eternal Life Island as he walked, first Abatai was caught alive when his head was broken and bleeding on Eternal Life Island.

Abbatei had just been rescued, and then Shuoto was captured and imprisoned in the capital. I heard that the Daming Jingshi quarreled over whether to kill Shuotuo or not, if it weren't for the fact that they had someone in the Jingshi, I am afraid that Shuotuo would have been executed by a thousand knives.

Some time ago, Huang Taiji also suffered a big loss there, although there were many losses of people and horses. More than 100,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, and for this matter, Huang Taiji was transferred to the Ningjin line to confront the Ming army.

A few days ago, the battle report came, and Amin's attack was also very unsmooth. Although Amin captured more than 10,000 Han people and used them as cannon fodder, he not only did not defeat Changsheng Island, but also lost his troops there.

The Jurchen families in Tunpu around Fuzhou were all plundered by Changsheng Island and hacked to death on Changsheng Island in droves. The women and children were also hung on the fortress in stripes, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Jurchen nobles.

Slaves are the private property of the Jurchen aristocracy, and cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. Everything is easy to say when Amin conquered Immortal Island, and now he has offended so many Jurchen nobles without defeat, his future can be said to be a dark road.

And what about him? How will he attack Changsheng Island when he arrives in Fuzhou? Is it to attack like Amin or to go to the siege like Huang Taiji, quietly accumulate strength and fight down?

While he was thinking about these things, a horse suddenly came galloping towards him. The man jumped off his horse, knelt down in front of Mang Gurtai and said loudly: "Report! Great Bel Amin was defeated on Eternal Life Island, and his life and death are still unknown. My Dajin warriors have not fought more than 10,000 people on Changsheng Island, and now Minggou is attacking Fuzhou ......"

Mang Gurtai's first reaction when he heard the news was disbelief, there were more than 7,000 Jurchen armor soldiers led by Amin, and there were as many as 10,000 Han army banners! There are tens of thousands of Han people as cannon fodder, how can it be defeated in such a short time?

But the facts were in front of him, so he didn't believe it, and Mang Gurtai could only order full speed forward to relieve the siege of Fuzhou.

When they rushed to Fuzhou City, what they saw was the ruined Fuzhou City. The walls were damaged in many places, and they were completely repaired with sandstone bricks.

The thick gates had long since been blown away, revealing the ruins of the city inside. As far as Mang Gurtai is concerned, if they hadn't come to scare away the Ming army, Fuzhou City would have been broken in half a day.

When he came to the bottom of the city, he laid down some baskets from the top of the city. A few people came out of it, and they hurried to Manggultai's horse and knelt down, thanking Erbel for his great grace in saving his life.

In the accounts of these men, Mang Gultai knew how Amin had been defeated. The remaining 2,000 Jurchen armor soldiers and hundreds of Han army banners fled into Fuzhou City, and they converged with Liu Xingzuo's men and horses in Fuzhou City to resist the attack of the Changxing army.

The artillery of the Changxing army was too sharp, and it collapsed the city walls in many places in one day. If it weren't for their desperate protection, Fuzhou City would have been lost long ago.

During the guard battle, Liu Xingzuo was also beaten by the Changxing Army's firecrackers, and he was in a coma for two days and two nights, and only woke up yesterday.

Hearing this, Mang Gurtai's face became gloomy, and the Ming army on Changsheng Island was really difficult to deal with. It's no wonder that the Khan King would let himself lead an army of 20,000 to support Amin, and now it seems that he will have to break a few teeth if he wants to eat Changsheng Island.

The Jurchens have not recovered since the battle of the Hunhe River, although they captured a large number of raw Jurchens to replenish the depleted troops.

But Immortal Island alone makes them bleed, and how many girls and real warriors do he have to die to take Immortal Island? Five thousand? Ten thousand? Still is......

The Jurchen can no longer be consumed in such vain, and he cannot repeat the mistakes of Huang Taiji and Amin.

As the sun rises above the horizon, the warm sun shines on the earth again. Bring a touch of warmth to this cold winter, and make this world a little more colorful.

Mang Gurtai came to Beixinkou with the Jurchen vests of 10,000 people, and he raised his eyes to look at the fortress on the other side.

The corpses of those Jurchen women and children are still floating in the wind, as if recounting the tragedy of their deaths. The brown blood stains on the fortress prove that there were fierce battles here, and more often than not, the headless corpses of the Jurchens were piled up on the ice, frozen into piles of corpses.

Jialahai has always taken the fierce general Zhang Fei as an example, and since he became the Jialazhangjing of the Zhenglan Banner, he must be the first in every battle and never fall behind.

When he saw the corpse on the fortress, he was surprisingly angry. It has always been them who slaughtered the Han people, when did their noble Jurchens be slaughtered like pigs and sheep?

He came to Manggultai's horse and fell on his knees to fight.

"The minion Jia Lahai is willing to lead Erlang to take the fortress and dedicate it to Lord Belle!" After speaking, he slammed his head on the ground.

Mang Gurtai thought for a moment and said, "Good! It's not the first warrior of my blue flag, you have to be more careful when you go. Don't do anything to return immediately, and don't damage too much! "Mang Gurtai mainly wanted to see the legendary terrifying fortress with his own eyes, and he only let Galahai test the attack once.

Galahai was ordered to go down to prepare, and in a short time a gara's vest stepped onto the ice and rushed towards the fortress.

Before they could set foot on Immortal Island, the cannons on the fortress opened fire one after another. Cannonballs kept hitting the ranks of Jalahe, and the corpses of the smashed men and horses flew everywhere.

Galahai galloped on his warhorse, and it was only then that he realized the horror of the fortress. With so many cannons in a small fortress, they wouldn't have been able to get close to the fortress without paying the price of a hundred.

In desperation, Galahai could only whip his horse desperately, hoping to rush to the bottom of the fortress as quickly as possible to avoid the artillery fire.

The moment he stepped onto the beach of Immortal Island, the artillery inside the fortress was replaced by a scattershot. Just one round of shooting caused Jialahai to suffer heavy losses, and seeing how terrifying the defense of the fortress was, Mang Gurtai's words of confession rang out.

Under his loud greeting, the Jurchen vest turned the horse's head and retreated.

Mang Gurtai, who was watching the battle from the rear, had to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops when he saw that Jialahai had suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, Jialahai was not a stupid cow who only knew how to charge.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Garahi stop charging and turn back. Mang Gurtai secretly promised in his heart: Jialahai is a material that can be made, can distinguish the priorities of things, and has the style of a general.

Just as Galahai had just reached the middle of the ice, "Boom! A loud bang came from under the ice.
