Chapter 624: Ice Release Suspicion
Li Brown left, and the ministers in the hall also walked out one after another, Shen Zhenglin glanced at Park Zhengyan, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth. Many officials walked to Shen Zhenglin's side, and for a while, the sound of horses was everywhere.
Shen Zhenglin has become a big hero, as if he is a loyal minister who has turned the tide, but Park Zhengyan on the side is standing there alone. The original Da Sixian seemed to have become a water dog, and no one was paying attention to him. In the eyes of many people, it is impossible for Park Jung-noon to hold Seoul, and with only 10,000 people, it is tantamount to wishful thinking. The most important thing now is to pat Shen Zhenglin's sycophants and let him take his family away, no one wants to die here.
Park Jung-lun didn't seem to see anything around him, and he didn't seem to hear anything in his ears, so he stood there. Looking at the empty throne, Park Jung-lun felt extremely sad in his heart, this is his own country, this is his own king!
At the beginning, Injo didn't oppose it anyway, but stood on a neutral standpoint. But now he regrets it, very much! The Westerners and Lee Brown are definitely not good rulers, and they will lead North Korea into the abyss. At this time, Park Zhenglun's heart was very complicated, and in the end it could only turn into an extremely complicated sigh.
It wasn't until the eunuch came to drive away Park Zhenglun that the big Sixian slowly came back to his senses, with an extremely lonely face, and walked out with a bent body. The whole person has a twilight aura, as if he has aged in an instant, and his spirit has been taken away!
Standing on the high post, Azig had a smile on his face, his right hand pressed the war knife at his waist, and his eyes looked at Seoul in front of him with burning eyes. After coming to Seoul these days, Azig's last trace of worry is also in his stomach. The army of Seoul cowered inside the city, allowing themselves to plunder the surrounding area, and did not leave the city in any way.
"Lord Belle, there seems to be movement in Seoul!" A commander came to Azig's face, saluted respectfully, and cautiously reminded.
Without answering the commander's words, Azig still looked at Seoul. With a serious face, he said, "How is it?" Has the food been raised? The team should be here in the next few days, and we must be ready. ”
"Back to Lord Belle, it's ready! We were very fast this time, and the North Koreans didn't have time to clear the wall. We raised a lot of food. The brothers originally thought that the army in Seoul would send troops, but they didn't expect them to cower in the city, what a bunch of soft eggs. The commander, apparently a warmonger, spat at the walls of Seoul with disdain.
"That's it!" Interrupting the Commander's words, Azig waved his hand and said, "You go down!" “
As soon as the commander turned to leave, Azig's brow furrowed as he saw the gates of Seoul open. Groups of North Korean soldiers came out and set up at the door.
First the cavalry. Then there were the infantry, lined up in defensive positions at the gates. Seeing this scene, Dai Shan frowned slightly.
"Lord Belle, do you want to take someone to rush?" The commander who had just set up turned back again, with a flattering smile on his face. Obviously, he wanted to take this credit in his arms.
Glancing back at the commander, Azig unceremoniously raised his foot, gave him a kick, and said loudly: "You blinding minion, look for yourself, there are 30,000 Koreans!" We only have 5,000 people, 5,000 children of the Eight Banners who have no horses. Do you want them to die? ”
Azig is not stupid, he can see that these North Koreans are obviously not here to attack him, then there is only one possibility, they are going to run away! Azig had long been accustomed to this, and many times the troops came to the city before they could attack. The Koreans surrendered in Kaesong! Or before the Eight Flags children arrived, they had already run away!
With his hands clasped tightly, Azig knew that this was the perfect opportunity for these North Koreans to definitely get down with a bang. Glancing back at the Eight Banners disciple behind him, he slowly let go of his hand. Now the whole Daikin. It can only make up an army of 40,000 people, which is already the limit of Daikin.
After several defeats in the Ming War, Dajin's losses were very large, and it was not easy to maintain 40,000 combat strength. This time, in order to ensure the success of the raid, Dorgon gave 20,000 men to himself, and no matter what the outcome was, Azig felt that he must bring them back well.
He doesn't have a horse now, and if he does, Azig is confident that he will attack. But the 5,000 foot soldiers, in front of these 30,000 people, I am afraid that they will suffer heavy losses. Until the end, Azig did not give the order to attack, but just watched the team go away.
"You take a few people, follow this team from a distance, and watch where they go!" Azig glanced back at the commander who had been kicked by him, and commanded lightly.
After these days of raiding, Azig still managed to plunder some horses, although not warlike horses, and even mules, but he was barely able to assemble a scout team.
"Yes, Lord Belle!" The commander gritted his teeth and walked down, he naturally didn't dare to blame Azig, and naturally put all his anger on this North Korean team.
Looking at the team that was gradually moving away, Azig had a sneer on his face, you want to run, I want to see where you can run! Azig is now just hoping that the brigade will arrive soon, get on the horse, and he can catch up with the best!
Li Brown ran away, Seoul was in crisis, and the news soon spread to the camp tents of the Ming Dynasty reinforcements. Zhu Xieyuan looked at the information in his hand with a deep surprise on his face. What are these Jiannu going to do? You don't have to go this far to loot, do you?
"My lord, the North Korean envoy is asking to see you outside!" The flag officer walked in, respectfully saluted Zhu Xieyuan, and said with disgust on his face.
For the Korean envoys, the Ming Dynasty people mostly had a natural sense of superiority over them, and the tone of voice was naturally not very polite when they spoke.
sighed softly, it seems that these North Korean envoys have also received the news, and Zhu Xieyuan really has a headache for these North Korean envoys who cry all day long. I can't avoid it yet, these people cry when they see them, and they annoy Zhu Xieyuan. waved his hand, put away the map in his hand irritably, and said to the flag officer: "You go and tell the envoy of North Korea that we are about to pull out the camp and start the fortress, and we are going to relieve the siege of Seoul in crisis." The march was about to be hurried, and Ben Shuai did not have time to meet them. ”
As for the purpose of the North Korean envoys, Zhu Xieyuan is naturally very clear, and such an answer must be what they want.
In the city of Hetuala, Dolgon stood in front of the map, with a little helplessness on his face, and asked softly, "Is the news reliable?" ”
"Back to Dahan, the news is very reliable! Zhu Xieyuan, the trusted supervisor of Liaodong, had already taken people to North Korea at this time, and now he should have crossed the Yalu River. They had no plan to attack us, and on the Tieling open line, they added 10,000 cavalry. These people patrol here all day, obviously guarding against our big gold! Dai Shan bowed slightly, and said with a little worry in his tone.
Dolgon was in a bad mood at this time, the people of the Ming Dynasty were not fooled, they did not come to attack him. At this time, he couldn't wait to lead the army and kill all the people in Daming, but he also knew that he couldn't do it. Turning around slowly, he glanced at Dai Shan, and Dolgon asked expressionlessly, "Big brother, what do you think we should do now?" Is it to lure this Ming cavalry further, or to go to Korea to support Azig! ”
Dai Shan was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Dolgon to ask him this question, you must know that since Dolgon ascended to the throne, he has been very wary of himself. For the things of war, I never let myself be involved. Glancing at Dolgon, although Dai Shan's face was puzzled, he still spoke: "Great Khan, now Dajin's strength is not as good as before, if you ignore Azig, I'm afraid they will be very dangerous." The minister knew that the Great Khan wanted to take a desperate gamble and defeat the Ming army like his father Khan in Sarhu to buy time for Dajin. ”
Speaking of this, Dai Shan glanced at Dolgon, saw that he had no expression, and then said: "But the Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty of the Salhu period, the Liaodong soldiers are strong and strong, and the commander is also very shrewd. Now what we need to do is to slowly recuperate, and the minister feels that he should go and save Azig. Even if the Great Khan wiped out 10,000 cavalry in Liaodong, if Azi lost 10,000 horses, it would not be something Dajin could afford! ”
The hall fell silent, and Dai Shan didn't say anything more, he felt that he had said enough. After all, in his opinion, he should still be self-preservation at this time, and this time he has already done something out of line. But Dai Shan has no way to control himself, this is the big gold that his father Khan has beaten down, and it is his own country.
The expression on Dolgon's face slowly softened, looked at Dai Shan, and said, "Big brother, I'm very pleased!" You're still my big brother, haven't changed. Dajin is not as good as it used to be, and Ben Khan is also walking on thin ice, this is the family business left by his father Khan, and we must keep it as sons. Although the eldest brother and the younger brother are young, they also understand the truth. ”
Dai Shan looked at Dolgon, suddenly talked about his clothes and knelt on the ground, and said: "Great Khan, although Dai Shan fought with the Great Khan for the throne before, Dai Shan has no regrets. However, since his father Khan chose the Great Khan, Dai Shan will follow his father's decision. What's more, the Great Khan has long proven that the Great Khan is capable of being a Great Khan. Dai Shan will not be delusional, please rest assured that the Great Khan will keep the family business of our father Khan even if we die. ”
Hurriedly walked over and helped Dai Shan up, Dolgon said emotionally: "Big brother, our Jurchens were originally oppressed by the Ming Dynasty, but it was my father Khan who worked hard all his life to have Dajin and our Jurchens today!" This time in North Korea, big brother will go on a trip! Bring those Eight Banners disciples back well! ”
