It was impossible for Zhang Chu to rebuild the city at the mouth of the Daling River without being discovered by the Houjin people, who found that a large group of Ming troops appeared at the mouth of the Daling River, and immediately sent a large number of scouts to check the movements of the Ming army, wanting to know what the intentions of the Ming army were. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAfter losing several batches of spies, the Houjin people finally understood that the Ming army was building a city there again, and couldn't help but sigh at the Ming army's dead heart, this Dalinghe City has been repaired twice, and it was demolished by the Houjin people, how can it be returned.

The Houjin soldiers hurriedly reported upward, hoping that Huang Taiji would send troops over again. Huang Taiji received the information but felt a little depressed, the Ming army, which had been beaten and obedient, seemed to have become very abnormal this time, not only counterattacked the northeast region, but also became strong all of a sudden, and won victories in Dongjiang and Lushun, and now came to the Daling River to build a city, is there any conspiracy to lure Houjin to send troops again, so that Houjin will be dealt a heavy blow there again.

Now Huang Taiji no longer has the feeling that the Ming army will win, and he is very careful to send troops, according to the intelligence, the Ming army that built a city in the Daling River should have about 20,000 people, and if you want to defeat them, you must at least have equal forces, and the gathering of these troops will take time, and the city of the Ming army should be almost built by then. Heavy artillery was also required for the siege, which slowed down the march. The time chosen by the Ming army to build the city is very hateful, it is now the autumn of the sixth year of Chongzhen, and when the siege begins, the winter in the northeast will come, if the siege is smooth and the war is delayed until the deep winter, it will be a very painful thing to be stationed in the field in the deep winter in the northeast region, and to fight.

The Ming army built fortified cities in Dongjiang and Lushun to send troops to guard, if the Houjin concentrated on attacking the Daling River, the Ming army in the two places would definitely take action, how to defend the rear became a problem, Huang Taiji felt that the soldiers and horses at hand were not enough. This is also the natural defect of the sparse population of the Houjin, the former Houjin people did not feel anything when they grabbed and ran, Huang Taiji changed his strategy, constantly expanded the territory he occupied, and dreamed of entering the Central Plains when he felt the lack of population.

Now it's too late for the Houjin people to desperately give birth to children, Huang Taiji decided to speed up the annexation of the Mongolian tribes on the steppe, after Lin Dan Khan was beaten by the Houjin people and fled from the Naturalization City, his control over the Mongolian tribes is getting weaker and weaker, although the eldest princess Wuliangha regained the Naturalization City with the help of Zhang Chu, but her appeal is still much worse than his brother, and many Mongolians are waiting. In the end, I can't make up my mind whether to take refuge with the eldest princess or wait for Lin Dan Khan to come back, and this is a good opportunity for Houjin to win over the Mongolian ministries.

Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to destroy Dalinghe City, and was determined to wait until the Mongolian tribes were subdued and there were enough men and horses to settle accounts with the security army.

In the Beijing Division, the ministers were surprised by Zhang Chu's actions, this person is too powerful, in such a short period of time, he put down the rebellion in Shandong, defeated the Houjin army in the Dongjiang River, and then captured Lushun City, when everyone thought that he would stop for a while if he was not rewarded by the emperor, he took people to repair Da Linghe City, and he also walked with good luck, repaired the city for so many days, and the Houjin people did not appear. Unlike Zu Dashou, after half of the repair, the Jin people came, surrounded Zu Dashou in the city and almost starved to death. What's even more hateful is that this Zhang Chu does not belong to any party in the court, although there are rumors that he has a relationship with Wen Tiren, but Wen Tiren has not been seen to fight for his interests.

The emperor gave the Guanning army a few million taels of silver every year, and in the past few years, the Guanning army has been defeated one after another. If Zhang Chu continues to win like this, it will not be easy to ask the emperor for money again. So the leaders of the various armies moved up to find their backers in the court, and tried to find a way to stumble Zhang Chu, wanting to defeat Zhang Chu's arrogance.

At this time, Zhang Chu didn't have the heart to care about the cranky thoughts of these Ming officials. The project of rebuilding Dalinghe City was going very smoothly, it was expected that Huang Taiji would come to harass, and the security army was ready for defensive operations, but I didn't expect Huang Taiji to retreat rarely, and the Jin people did not appear until the construction of Dalinghe City was completed. Even so, Zhang Chu did not dare to be careless, and sent a large number of security troops to guard Dalinghe City, and constantly improved the entire defense line, transported a large amount of food and other materials from Shandong, and was ready to hold on for a long time.

Just when Zhang Chu was actively preparing for the counterattack of Houjin, an important guest came to Dalinghe City, and He Jin, who was sitting in Shandong, suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Chu.

"Lao He, why are you here, do you have any important business?" Zhang Chu was also very surprised by He Jin's arrival.

"I'm here for private business, nothing official." He Jin's answer made Zhang Chu even more strange. He Jin is the highest military leader of the security army in Shaanxi and Shanxi, and he will not leave easily without Zhang Chu's order, and he came all the way to Liaodong without greeting Zhang Chu in advance but said that it was just for private matters, which is unimaginable.

"Alright, let's go in and talk." Zhang Chu thought that He Jin had something secret to talk about, so he didn't ask any more, let He Jin go to his house, and let everyone else retreat.

"Now I can tell you why you're here." Zhang Chu asked again when he saw that everyone else had retreated.

"I'm really here for a private matter this time, someone came to Fugu City to force marriage." He Jin didn't even sit down, and hurriedly said to Zhang Chu.

"Who is in such a hurry to marry you?" Zhang Chu felt funny when he heard it, what is there to be nervous about getting married, look at He Jin's anxious look.

"If it's my own business, I'll still come to you, I'm here for you, the eldest princess Uliangha came to Fugu to find you, and I want to marry you immediately." Hokin said the real purpose of this coming.

"She's in a hurry, aren't we already engaged, what does it matter if you get married one day earlier or one day later." Zhang Chu's heart was shouting: "It has a lot to do with it, I really want to get married, but I really don't have time." ”

"This time the situation is really urgent, otherwise I wouldn't have come all the way, the eldest princess is in a hurry now, staying in Fugu and saying nothing and not leaving, saying that if you don't go back to marry her, she will wait in Fugu and not leave, and she doesn't even care about the matter of Naturalization City, I discussed it with Zhu Shiji before I felt that all this is still up to you to decide." That's why I'm here to report to you. He Jin had a helpless expression.

"Isn't this nonsense, how can you ignore Mongolian affairs for your own business." Zhang Chu thought to himself what kind of evil style this girl had.

"You can't blame her, she really has something to do with the situation in Mongolia." Ho Kim said. (To be continued.) )
