Chapter 350: Schadenfreude

The victory over the Ming army led by Liu Yulie greatly boosted the morale of the rebels, and many rebels began to flutter, and the nonsense of cutting the Ming army like cutting leeks also came out, which shows the arrogance of the rebels. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the same time, the recruitment of Dongjiang rebel generals was very effective, Mao Wenlong's head of the righteous son, Mao Chenglu led more than 3,000 soldiers, Chen sometimes led more than 2,000 soldiers to Dengzhou to join the army, and under their leadership, there were also 7788 soldiers from the Dongjiang islands who continued to come to take refuge.

At that time, the number of rebel soldiers gathered in Dengzhou reached more than 30,000, and there were 50,000 miscellaneous soldiers such as the powerful and powerful Kou homeless people.

The great victory over the Ming army, coupled with the expansion of the ranks and the increase of the number of military leaders, made the decision difficult.

In fact, it is as simple as fighting or surrendering.

Li Jiucheng, who has been carried away by the continuous victories, no longer wants to recruit any peace, and his greatest hope is to divide the party in Denglai.

And Mao Chenglu was extremely resentful of the Ming Court because of Mao Wenlong's affairs, and of course he didn't want to recruit any peace.

And Geng Zhongming is determined to be appeased, his meaning is very simple, the Ming Dynasty is still strong, but it was a temporary defeat, the imperial court made a decision to transfer the border troops of Xuanfu and even Liaozhen, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers under their command, they can't resist.

Geng Zhongming knew in his heart that these soldiers were much stronger than the guards in the interior, but they would definitely be invincible when they encountered a real border army.

As the de facto leader of the rebels, Kong Youde wanted to be appeased in his heart, but he was wandering around the officialdom, and he knew that if the terms of the appeasement could not be negotiated, then everything would be suspended.

Otherwise, he will be played to death by the Ming officials sooner or later.

He also knew in his heart that most of the combat strength of his subordinate officers and troops was stronger than that of the guards, and they would be defeated when they encountered the soldiers of Liaozhen.

However, it was precisely because Liaozhen had just been defeated by Jiannu a few months ago that Zhang Chun and Zu Dashou had lost half of the elite of Liaozhen. In order not to lose Liaozhen, it is to mobilize Liaozhen soldiers, and how many elites can come to attack, I am afraid most of them are just a number.

Therefore, Kong Youde made up his mind that he would still fight, and at least one more Shahe victory would be enough. At that time, Chongzhen and the cabinet elder pinched their noses and had to admit it.

And now it is different, in order to be cared for and show sincerity, he has released Sun Yuanhua, Wang Hui, Zhang Tao and other civil and military officials, and before letting them leave, he even persuaded them to speak for them after they went back, which is also to exonerate them, Sun Yuanhua nodded helplessly.

In addition, he sent people to condescend to consult with his defeated general Liu Yulie, and put forward the condition that he would be appointed as the commander-in-chief of Denglai. If you do not enter Liaodong to participate in the war, you will not be responsible for the past, and the rebellion will be written off.

In addition to Liu Yulie's refusal to enter the Liaodong battle, and the past can be discussed, the post of commander-in-chief of Denglai is a refusal, and the message brought back by the subordinates sent is absolutely impossible.

In fact, Kong Youde didn't think that it must be the general army of Denglai, but the rebels cannot be broken up, they must be grouped together. As long as he is given the official position of chief soldier, there is a place to raise soldiers.

Denglai is the second largest military town after Liaozhen. Thinking about it, Chongzhen was not so brainless, so he was appointed as the chief soldier of Denglai.

This can be discussed, but judging from Liu Yulie's attitude, it is impossible for any general soldier, and the nearly 100,000 soldiers under him Kong Youde will not even give a general soldier, so what else can we talk about.

It still doesn't seem to hurt.

Kong Youde decided that he had to beat the Ming army hard, so that the court and the Son of Heaven had to be appeased. Had to agree to his conditions.

For this purpose, he and Liu Yulie made false promises, pretending to stop shelling Laizhou and not take the initiative to attack the Ming army.

As a result, Liu Yulie believed that it was true, and at the same time, it also made other Ming generals believe it.

Daming officialdom is like a sieve. Liu Yulie and Kong Youde had a hot conversation, which was quite like that, so the merit grabbing came.

Chen Peng, the general of the Tianjin Naval Division, had stayed in both the Liaodong Naval Division and the Dongjiang Naval Division in his early years, and was familiar with Geng Zhongming and Geng Zhongyu's brothers.

He heard that Liu Yulie and Kong Youde were almost cared for, but he found Dengzhou and talked to Geng Zhongming about how he was familiar with the Lord of the Military Department in Jinmen, and he could be tactful on his behalf, to put it bluntly, he wanted Geng Zhongming to be caressed by him, which was also a great achievement, but unfortunately, this greed cost him his life.

Geng Zhongming knew that this person had always spoken uncertainly, and if he said it, he would not admit it later, so he pretended to agree to be cared for, and pretended to send his wife and family wealth to Tianjin as a hostage as a bait, luring this general to Dengzhou Shuicheng and taking it in one fell swoop.

He also used him as bait to trap his subordinates, and obtained more than 200 sea ships and 3,000 sailors, which was almost one more Dengzhou sailor to stand in line.

This appeasement became a joke among the Den Lai rebels.

And Liu Yulie, Xie Lian, and Zhu Wannian also believed in Kong Youde's sincerity in being appeased.

Xie Lian and Zhu Wannian proudly entered Kong Youde's camp outside Laizhou City to appease, the result was that Xie Lian was executed, Zhu Wannian was killed, and the rebels took the opportunity to attack the city.

Starting from the rebellion of Kong Youde and Liu Jiucheng, the response of Shandong Governor Yu Dacheng, Denglai Governor Sun Yuanhua, and Supervisor Liu Yulie was more brain-dead than the other, and the result was that Kong Youde's rebels swelled up like balloons for half a year.

And the Ming court lost its army and land, lost all its face, and was helpless in the face of the northeast Jiannu, the west civil unrest, and the east rebels.

"Haha, the rebellion of the Ming Kingdom is intensifying, and the thieves of the Dongjiang River not only give me a headache, but now the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is also like a knife." Huang Taiji laughed heartily.

Huang Taiji hadn't been in the battle formation for several years, his figure had changed from tall and strong to tall and fat, and his voice was getting louder and louder.

Haoge, Zilharang, Yue Tuo, Azig, Abatai, Fan Wencheng, Gao Hongzhong, Li Yongfang, Shi Tingzhu and others stood respectfully below.

Now these people are all in the small circle close to Huang Taiji, and they are all Huang Taiji's so-called descendants.

After each court meeting, Huang Taiji has important tasks, so he knows that these people stay and discuss it.

Today is the latest Ming war report has arrived, and Li Yongfang has already relayed the complaint, and it has become a common practice to talk about the urgent military situation in this small circle before the meeting of the Great Dynasty.

These close civil and military men first reached a relatively unanimous opinion, and then went to the court to discuss it, so that these people could coordinate at the court meeting and act according to the instructions of the Great Khan.

Li Yongfang just mentioned that in the Battle of Shahe, more than 20,000 Ming troops under Liu Yulie's division were defeated by the same number of rebels.

Thousands of people were captured, fled for dozens of miles, discarded everything that could be discarded, and the weight of any artillery armor made the rebels laugh, providing countless money, food, and armor for the expansion of the rebels, which simply shocked the jaws of many people in Dajin.

What's the situation, is the combat power of the Ming army so weak now, the combat power of the Dongjiang soldiers is a scum in the eyes of their Jin army, and they never dare to confront the Jin army head-on, that is, the work of stealing chickens and dogs, and now they have beaten the main force of the Ming army to the ground, which simply makes these Jurchen royal families dumbfounded.

"Where are the reinforcements?" Yue Tuo asked the key question, from the source of the reinforcements, you can peek into the strength of the Ming army's inland troops.

"Jimen, Miyun, Baoding, Tianjin, Changping, and Shandong have dispatched more than 20,000 soldiers and auxiliaries from the general army offices in Jimen, Miyun, Baoding, Tianjin, Changping, and Shandong, in addition to gunners and Hongyi artillery reinforcements from the Beijing camp." Li Yongfang remembered it very clearly, because these were all of great concern to Huang Taiji, and of course he didn't dare to slack off.

"The two battalions of the Ming army in Denglai this time were almost completely destroyed, the naval division was wiped out, and dozens of artillery pieces fell into the hands of the rebels, that is, the Ming country defeated the rebels miserably, and Denglai did not regain the appearance of the second largest military town in the Ming country, so there is no need to worry." Hauge said cheerfully.

Huang Taiji shook his head imperceptibly, thinking about it.

"There is also a Zhao Lie in Denglai, he is the mortal enemy of my Dajin." Yue Tuo interjected, Yue Tuo became famous at a young age, fought with the army for many years, was resolute and resolute, won the joy of the old Khan King, and had his own strategy.

He said in one sentence that the foundation of Denglai's combat power was in Zhao Lie, and the rest were not afraid.

"He is just a small guard commander, in charge of thousands of troops, I heard that Xuanchuan suffered a lot of losses in the first battle, and Denglai will be turned into white land in the future, what else can he do." Hauge didn't care, and he didn't care too much about his cousin, and now he was the eldest son of the lord of the country.

"It is because he has repeatedly attacked our army, destroying the lives of thousands of soldiers of our army." Huang Taiji interrupted him, he was not very satisfied with this son, but now among his own sons, only Haoge can help him.

"Your Majesty, since the Ming army is so weak, why don't our army enter the customs again this year." Abatai's eyes widened.

Although the age is not small, but this momentum has not changed, Huang Taiji smiled.

"If it doesn't work this year, the army will conquer Chahar, if Lin Dan Khan can't be completely solved this time, it will come again next year."

Huang Taiji shook his head regretfully, to be honest, the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty continued, and the weakness of the army was the season to use soldiers.

It's a pity, it's a pity.

"It's just that Lin Dan Khan in the north is gathering his troops in a vain attempt to make a comeback, you wait and think about it, the eastern North Korea is not to be afraid now, the southern Denglai and Dongjiang are too busy to take care of themselves, it is good to be able to hold the islands, the elite soldiers in western Liaoning lost half of Thailand, and also sent me and more than 10,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of Dingkou, haha." Huang Taiji let out a long laugh.

Everyone also laughed proudly, this is the great feats of the past few years, all of which have been fought by everyone's own hands, of course, proud.

"If Lin Dan Khan is defeated, who else can control my Dajin, and then my Dajin can enter the customs at any time, and there will be no worries." Speaking of this, Huang Taiji's face was full of red light.

He put in order the mess that his father Khan had handed over to him on all sides and the Han people who had fled into the situation it is today, and he certainly had reason to be proud.

Everyone praises, they are also worshipping the current Khan King, under the governance of Huang Taiji, Dajin is indeed thriving, and now there is a faint appearance of entering the Central Plains, which is not dared to think when the old Khan King entered Shenyang. (To be continued.) )
