Yue Tuo's two requests to see him were refused, knowing that Seysang would not borrow troops.

He was originally going to make meritorious service by borrowing troops from the Horqin Ministry, and after recovering Guangning, he would return to Shengjing to ask Huang Taiji for his guilt, but now it seems that this wish cannot be realized.

He didn't believe that Seysang was really sick at all, and he was delirious, but Seysan used his illness as an excuse to sue him and borrow troops from Korqin, but there was no way.

Yue Tuo turned around the hall twice, smashed all the porcelain and pottery in the hall, and then raised his horsewhip and said to the soldiers who followed him: "Go, go back." ”

From Tang Harik back to Shengjing, separated by the Great Wall of Liaodong and the lofty mountains, taking Guangning is the nearest road, but Guangning Yuetuo obviously can't go back, so he has to make a detour to the north.

After such a delay, when Yue Tuo returned to Shenyang, he was several days later than Youmele Ezhen Hulu, who had fled directly from Quang Ninh, and before he returned to Shenyang, the "Eight Kings Council" of the Dajin Kingdom had already held a meeting to put a red flag on him.

After the second Bel Amin officially ascended the throne as Khan in the Emperor Taiji, he was driven to Hetuara by the Emperor Taiji, and Yue Tuo, one of the four small Belles, did not return, so there were only six people attending the meeting: the Great Bel Daishan, the Third Bel Mang Gurtai, the Fourth Bel Huang Taiji, and the three Minor Bel Azig, Dolgon and Duoduo.

"Great Khan, this is the biggest defeat suffered by the Dajin Kingdom since the father Khan raised his army, this is the shame of the Dajin Kingdom, and the culprit Yue Tuo must be severely punished."

Mang Gurtai lost the opportunity to serve as the Great Khan back then, and Yue Tuo's secret troublemakers are inseparable, he still hates Yue Tuo deeply, even more than he hates Huang Taiji, Yue Tuo is usually covered by Huang Taiji, and he is the lord of a banner, Mang Gurtai has nothing to do with him, today is the best opportunity given to Mang Gurtai by the Immortal God.

"This ......," Huang Taiji hesitated, "maybe things aren't as bad as Hulu said. ”

Dai Shan kept his head down, Yue Tuo was his son, he wanted to help say a few words, but if what Hulu said was true, then Yue Tuo had committed a heinous crime, and if he didn't punish him, he couldn't say anything about it.

Compared with the distinct attitude of the three Belles, the attitudes of the three little Belle Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo are much more ambiguous, they are half-brothers, they usually take care of each other, and there is no hatred with Yueto.

Among the three brothers, Azig is brave and resourceful on the battlefield and is a rare general, but in terms of life and affairs, he seems to be more honest, even a little wooden, and Duoduo is young, and Dolgon has become the backbone of the three of them.

Dolgon privately believes that Yue Tuo's red flag is completely annihilated, and Yue Tuo bears unshirkable responsibility, but he has always had no ill feelings towards Yue Tuo, and Dai Shan is also present, so he does not want to fall into the ground.

Both Azig and Dord's eyes swept over Dorgon's face, meaning to make him an idea.

Dolgon gently patted the dust on the corner of his clothes: "If the red flag is really as Hulu said, Yue Tuo will naturally take responsibility, but now there is only Hulu's words, and it is not accurate, the Great Khan should immediately send someone to Guangning to find out what happened and the next move of the Ming army, which is the right thing." ”

Huang Taiji nodded: "What Dolgon said is that I will immediately send someone to Quang Ninh." ”

Mang Gurtai was anxious: "It is important to listen to the information of the Ming army, but the responsibility for the fiasco of the red flag cannot be erased. ”

Dolgon's eyes rolled suddenly: "That Hulu, dare to give up Guangning, flee at night, there are still more than 1,000 soldiers in the city at that time, if you stick to and wait for help, Guangning may not be able to keep it, the Great Khan ......"

Huang Taiji patted the desk in front of him: "This Hulu, dare to flee without a fight, and strictly corrupt the military discipline of the Dajin Kingdom, I want to behead this person, with the correct military law, what do you Baylor think?" ”

Mang Gurtai immediately agreed: "This person abandoned the city and left, and he should be beheaded, but he is a person with a red flag, and the banner owner Yue Tuo is also guilty of poor supervision." ”

Seeing that everyone was cold, Azig slowly offered a word: "At that time, Yue Tuo was not in Guangning City, and the cavalry of Dajin Kingdom had always been invincible, so when encountering adversity, the general's heart temporarily changed, and he couldn't complain about Yue Tuo. ”

Mang Gurtai couldn't get a response from everyone, but he didn't give up: "Even if the loss of Guangning is not the fault of Yue Tuo, but the loss of Ningyuan and Jinzhou, it is difficult for Yue Tuo to shirk the responsibility, and besides, the loss of the red flag is so heavy, and it was commanded by Yue Tuo himself, is this crime not as good as the loss of Guangning?" ”

Everyone was silent, and even Dai Shan nodded slowly.

"Sanbeile talked about the loss of Ningyuan and Jinzhou, plus the loss of the red flag, I think of one thing," Dolgon glanced left and right, "With my understanding of the Ming Kingdom, their army cannot have such a strong combat effectiveness, why did all these things happen?" Yue Tuo has fought to the point of annihilation, has he done his best? ”

Dai Shan finally spoke: "Dolgon is right, if Ningyuan is lost, it can be said that Sun Chengzong's sneak attack was successful, but Yue Tuo was prepared, and after taking over all the troops of the Red Banner, he still lost Jinzhou and Guangning, and ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, is this the crime of ineffective war?" Is it that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army has increased dramatically? What do we need to do to prepare for this? ”

"Sudden ascension? Big Baylor's words are too alarmist, aren't they? Mang Gurtai puffed out his cheeks, his face obviously displeased, "The combat effectiveness of an army is trained for a long time, how can it be greatly improved overnight?" ”

Huang Taiji saw that the topic deviated from the punishment of Yue Tuo, and he was secretly happy in his heart, "Maybe the firearms of the Ming army have improved, in the past, we did not suffer less from the artillery of the Ming army, didn't Hulu say that the Ming army carried new firearms?" ”

Mang Gurtai wiped his big hand on the desk, almost knocked over the mare's milk wine on the table, every time the "Eight Kings Discuss Politics", he is the only person who can drink mare's milk wine, which is also allowed by Huang Taiji.

"Looking at the entire grassland, the strongest combat effectiveness is still the cavalry, and firearms are only auxiliary, how can any new firearms extinguish the army of the banner of the Dajin Kingdom?"

Everyone also felt that Mang Gurtai was reasonable, and they were speechless for a while.

Mang Gurtai saw that his words finally calmed down the Baylors present, and his heart was full of joy: "I am willing to lead the Blue Flag to recapture Quang Ninh." ”

Huang Taiji waved his hand: "Sanbeile's courage is commendable, go back first and prepare to send troops, and after my spies bring back specific information, we will discuss the use of troops, this is the end of today's meeting, after you go back, you should also pay attention to the changes in the military situation in Guangning." ”

Coming out of the Dazheng Palace, Huang Taiji returned to Qingning Palace with a heavy heart.

He entered the study and sat alone at his desk.

Dolgon's words just now, although he was exonerating Yue Tuo, but Huang Taiji was secretly frightened, Yue Tuo was not a cowardly banner master, on the contrary, he was brave and strategic, and had won many battles, why did such an excellent banner owner lose so badly this time?

Yue Tuo's crime is still secondary, if the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is really raised to a terrible level, how will he respond?

Ningyuan, Jinzhou and Guangning are already the land of the Dajin Kingdom, if they are lost like this, will there be anyone in the Dajin Kingdom who will count the sin of losing the land on their heads?

Will Amin and Mang Gurtai make a comeback and threaten their position as Great Khan again under the pretext of losing their land?

Without information from the front, Huang Taiji could not find the answers to these questions.

He rested his right arm on the desk, propped up his head, and rubbed his forehead with his fingers.

"Squeak!" The door to the study was pushed open.

Zhonggong Dafu Jin Zhezhe held a cup of tea that Huang Taiji particularly liked and slowly entered the study.

"How did the Great Khan shut himself up in his study? What's not going to go your way? Didn't our sisters get tired of the Great Khan? ”

Huang Taiji's body did not move, and he raised his eyes to look at Zhezhe, although he was nearly thirty years old, his figure was not bloated, and his fair face still looked like a lotus root that had just come out of the water.

"Dafujin is too careful, I'm just thinking about some government issues."

Zhezhe stood beside Huang Taiji, with a peaceful smile on his face, never happy or sad, "Great Khan, let Bumu Butai sleep tonight!" This girl is complaining again that she failed to conceive a child for the Great Khan. ”

Huang Taiji had something in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to think about the bed, but Zhezhe's words reminded him of Bumu Butai, the little girl whose skin was as white as snowflakes, soft as mink to the touch, and always had meekness and begging in her eyes.

"Okay, you go ahead and arrange it!" Huang Taiji couldn't bear to refuse, maybe he would relax at night, and his mind would be opened, just like the eve when he once seized the throne of the Great Khan.

"Yes, then I'll arrange it." As soon as Zhezhe reached the door, he stopped again, "Didn't the Great Khan have an all-powerful strategist?" If there is something that we women can't help us, the Great Khan can ask Fan Wencheng. ”

"Fan Wencheng?" Huang Taiji exclaimed, he was anxious for a while, how could he forget Fan Wencheng? "Send Fan Wencheng to see me immediately."

Fan Wencheng's mansion is in Xihai Hutong, near the left of Qingning Palace, only two miles away from Qingning Palace, and after a while, he came to Huang Taiji's study under the guidance of the eunuch.

"Grass folk Fan Wencheng knocks on the Great Khan!" Fan Wencheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Huang Taiji respectfully, he has no official position now, Huang Taiji values him, so he is placed in the "Khan Zhiwen Pavilion", known as the "Study Official", in fact, he is just Huang Taiji's personal adviser.

"Sir, get up!" Huang Taiji hurriedly got up, helped Fan Wencheng by the hand, and pressed him to the chair opposite to sit down.

The eunuch came over to make tea for Fan Wencheng.

"This is a good Mao Feng purchased from you Han people, the price is not cheap, and it is not easy to buy, sir try it - if sir likes it, I will have someone send two packs to him tomorrow." Huang Taiji himself picked up the teacup, smelling the fragrance emitted by Mao Feng, and took a sip, "This Mao Feng is really good, just when you open the teacup, the fragrance that comes out makes people love it." ”

"Thank you, Great Khan!" Fan Wencheng learned from Huang Taiji's appearance, smelling it first and then tasting it, but he found that this Mao Feng had not been washed at all, it was directly brewed with hot water, and there was a faint astringent smell in the tea fragrance, "The Great Khan suddenly came to the grass people, not to taste tea, right?" ”
