Chapter 215: Heist of the Lost Ark: White Lotus Sect

: Today's second change, big change, thank you friends for coming straight to the orange β€»

Tang Jing's report gave Zhu Youxiao a headache in his head.

I'm afraid to think about anything!

The more Zhu Youxiao thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, his father had been on the throne for less than a month, and the crown prince had not yet had time to be established. At that time, some of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty advocated the establishment of the chief, and some advocated the establishment of the virtuous. Lichang is Zhu Youxiao, and Lixian is Zhu Youjian. Because everyone knows that Zhu Youxiao has not studied well, and he can't even write many words. But Zhu Youzhen is different, he can memorize Tang poems and Song lyrics backwards at the age of five, and he is deeply loved by the emperor.

However, at that time, it was the Donglin Party that controlled the government. The Donglin Party obviously wanted to support Zhu Youxiao's accession to the throne, because they felt that it was easy for an emperor who did not know much knowledge to play tricks. After Zhu Youxiao became in power, he knew that his father's violent death had a lot to do with the Donglin Party, so he supported Wei Zhongxian to suppress the Donglin Party, and always forgot about the establishment of the prince in the first place.

Thinking about it now, the more Zhu Youxiao thinks about it, the more suspicious he becomes.

"What do you think?"

Tang Jing looked at Zhu Youxiao's frowning pain, so he said, "Weichen doesn't dare to say anything!" ”

"I want you to say it!"

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao was very serious, Tang Jing said: "Did the emperor remember the eunuch Wang Zhen's abuse of power back then!" ”

Zhu Youxiao shook his head, and Tang Jing told Zhu Youxiao again.

At that time, Wang Zhen assisted the young Yingzong and became a close minister of Yingzong. Helplessly, Yingzong was only a few years old and could not personally deal with national affairs, so the grandmother of the Empress Dowager Zhang Yingzong listened to the government. Although Empress Dowager Zhang was in power, she did not deal with state affairs, but handed over the affairs of the state to the cabinet. As Yingzong grew up, once a son of heaven and a courtier, Wang Zhen was able to lead Dongchang. At that time, Zhang Guozhang was a veteran of the three dynasties, and he was very unhappy with Yingchadao zhì Yingzong at every turn. Wang Zhen then took the opportunity to sow discord from it. repeatedly framed Zhang Guozhang, and finally Yingzong ordered Zhang Guozhang to surrender his military power. From then on, Wang Zhen held the military power, and finally caused a tragic ending in Tumubao.

The relationship between Yingzong and Wang Zhen is similar to the previous relationship between Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian, which makes Zhu Youxiao have some understanding.

"Wei Chen thought that Wei Zhongxian's doing such a rebellious thing" must have something to do with the three kings, but who is it, the minister does not dare to make a remark! ”

Zhu Youxiao took a few puffs of cigarette to refresh himself, and then said, "Lian knows!" ”

Tang Jing said again: "But that adult also mentioned the White Lotus Sect, it seems that the White Lotus Sect can't get out of it!" ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Wei Zhongxian is said to be a eunuch who has no money to repay his debts, and he was chased and killed before entering the palace as a eunuch!" If you have anything to do with the White Lotus Sect, then you must have been in contact before, and you immediately start investigating and collecting evidence! ”

"Wechen obeys!"

Tang Jing received the order, and Zhu Youxiao said again: "How is the care of the prison of the Criminal Department?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Tang Jing replied: "Lord Di has already dispatched hundreds of soldiers to protect it tightly, and Wei Zhongxian's comrades are estimated to be unable to attack!" ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said with a smile: "This shows that Deng Aiqing is not the mastermind behind the scenes of another group of people, and the loyalty of the couplet is still remarkable." ”

Tang Jing secretly said, it turned out that the emperor had this kind of purpose, and he admired it in his heart.

"The Emperor Shengming!"

Zhu Youxiao said: "Tell your people not to stare at him, lest he be revealed, so that Aiqing thinks crookedly!" ”

"Wechen obeys!"

"Go down! I'm tired! ”

"Wechen retires!"

Tang Jing looked at Zhu Youxiao, he could be tired lying down every day? However, he obviously didn't dare to ask this, so Shi Li withdrew from the main hall.

After Na Haonan finished interrogating Wei Zhongxian, he returned to the breech of the yamen to drink tea and rest.

At this time, Langzhong Xie Jin came in with a large stack of official documents and asked Deng Haonan to sign the seal.

As soon as he saw the stack of official documents, Deng Haonan had a headache.

"Don't bother this official with this kind of trivial matter! Find Li He! ”

Xie Jin smiled bitterly and said, "My lord doesn't know, Lord Li went out and hasn't come back yet!" ”

Deng Haonan then said: "Then you can sign it!" ”

Xie Jin replied, "Don't be happy with that little person, my lord!" The official document of the Criminal Department could only be signed and sealed by Lord Shangshu after seeing it in person. Now adults ignore it."

Seeing Deng Haonan's glare, Xie Jin hurriedly changed his words, and said with a bright smile: "Now that the adults are busy with official business, Lord Li has already borrowed the temporary agent, and the lower officials are not enough to be at the level." ”

Deng Haonan then said: "Then let's wait for Master Li to come back!" ”

Xie Jin smiled bitterly: "My lord, there are tens of thousands of official documents of the Criminal Department every day, and there will be a backlog after a while, and this backlog, I don't know when I will sign it again, most of the official documents are matters of human life, as little as one person, as many as a dozen or dozens of people, this is a matter of life." ”

You will make a big deal with Lao Tzu!

Na Haonan was helpless, so under the guidance of Xie Jin, he dealt with the official documents. Feng Shaoyan watched while saying a few words to Deng Haonan about the procedures he knew.

The seal signed by the criminal department is to walk in a shape. After the local yamen makes a judgment, it must send the official document to the criminal department, and only after the criminal department signs and seals the custody can the local yamen officially exercise its rights, detain the detainees, match the detainees, and behead the decapitation.

Xie Jin opened the official documents, and Deng Haonan directly signed and sealed them in the lower right corner, which seemed to be very efficient, and in a blink of an eye, Xie Jin took a stack of official documents and dealt with it.

"Don't you need to check this male tip?"

Na Haonan raised questions, and Xie Jin said: "My lord, generally speaking, if the local judgment is made, basically the criminal department will not ask. After stamping, it becomes an iron case. Unless it involves the judgment of an official, or the emperor has ordered the criminal department to try it, then the criminal department will hear it in person. It's like the adult arraigned Wei Zhongxian today, that is, the Qin prisoner designated by the emperor for trial! ”

"What should I do if the people are misjudged by the unconscious officials?"

Xie Jin smiled slightly and said, "Unless the court investigates, or the common people have someone in the court, no one cares!" ”

At court one hand will wash the other!

Na Haonan didn't ask anymore, and if he asked, it was in vain.

β€»β€»

After leaving the yamen of the Criminal Department, Deng Haonan asked Feng Shaoyan if there was anything else to do, and Feng Shaoyan replied that there was nothing important to do. So Na Haonan called Ding Da Niu and went to the Temple of Heaven with fifty guards to see if there were any clues.

The Temple of Heaven is located on the east side of the Yongding Gate in the outer city and belongs to the royal garden. Because the garden is too large, there are no civilians near it at all, so there are not many guards, only a few Royal Foresters guarding the outer gate of the wall.

In the past few days, Feng Shaoyan has been ordered to go in and out of the Temple of Heaven to search for the remnants of the eunuchs, and he is very familiar with the guards. This time Deng Haonan came over, and the guards didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly opened the door.

Deng Haonan asked, "Have you ever done anything?" ”

Feng Shaoyan replied: "Don't worry, my lord, it has already been checked, and they won't talk nonsense." Besides, even if we don't have a legitimate excuse to go in, they don't dare to report it, and they naturally keep their mouths shut when they get the money. ”

Deng Haonan nodded, and as soon as he reined in the war horse, everyone rushed in.

Revisiting the old place, Di Haonan has a special feeling. Later generations visiting the Temple of Heaven could not feel that classical atmosphere at all, because most of the area near the Temple of Heaven has become an open downtown area. There is no such atmosphere of royal majesty and secluded gardens.

Entering the Temple of Heaven, Na Haonan led people around, looking for the huge Temple of Heaven garden

Could it be that the treasure is buried under the Temple of Heaven?

Deng Jienan thought like this in his mind, and immediately denied it.

Impossible, the Temple of Heaven was built early, and Zheng He did not have the ability to hide the treasure under the Temple of Heaven. However, it may be hidden in a corner near the Temple of Heaven, after all, the Temple of Heaven is too large, and it is possible to bury treasures quietly.

But then again, it is precisely because the Temple of Heaven is so big that unless hundreds of thousands of people are mobilized to dig three feet into the ground. Otherwise there's really no way.

Thinking about that riddle, Na Haonan knew that the altar must have something to do with the treasure.

Ascending to the Temple of Heaven, Na Haonan felt the difference in the Temple of Heaven. The Temple of Heaven in later generations was rebuilt in the Manchu era, so it is not very different from what Deng Haonan saw. During the Qianlong period, the country was rich and strong, and the Temple of Heaven was also greatly constructed. In the twelfth year of Qianlong, the emperor decided to rebuild the inner and outer walls of the Temple of Heaven, and changed the earthen wall to be covered with city bricks, and the middle to the top was covered with two layers of city bricks. The width of the top of the inner altar wall was reduced to create a 4 feet 8 inches, without eaves columns, and became an overhanging eaves corridor without columns. The inner and outer walls of the Temple of Heaven that have been rebuilt are thicker and heavier, extending for more than ten miles, becoming a very magnificent landscape. The main buildings of the Temple of Heaven, such as the Hall of Prayer, the Imperial Dome, and the Circle Mound, were also rebuilt at this time and have survived to this day.

Now the Temple of Heaven that Deng Haonan sees is far less luxurious than that of later generations, giving people a sense of vicissitudes, which should be because no one has paid tribute to it for a long time.

Climbing the round mound altar and looking at the surrounding forest and blue sky, Deng Haonan didn't have any idea at all.

Turning around, Deng Haonan observed the round mound altar.

Feng Shaoyan said: "We have sent people to check the beams and the corners around us, and there are no traces. Na Haonan nodded, continued to look up, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the erection plaque on the altar of the round mound.

"Did you see the plaque behind?"

Na Haonan suddenly remembered that the ancient emperors generally liked to put things like the edict behind the plaque.

"Not yet!"

"Go up and see!"

Feng Shaoyan said: "My lord, the top is very high, and it is easy to be seen. ”

"It's fine!"

Deng Haonan nodded in agreement, and Ding Daniu immediately sent someone to climb up the ladder to check.

A guard came to the plaque and examined it carefully.

"Mrs. Qiyu, there is no show!"

Na Haonan frowned, thinking about something.

Seeing this, Feng Shaoyan shouted, "Check it carefully again and see if there is anything special." ”

The guard searched left and right, then turned the plaque over, and now there was a pattern of the sun cut under the smooth wooden planks behind it.

"There are pictures!"

Deng Haonan was in high spirits and said, "Take it!" ”

The guard carefully handed down the plaque, and Na Haonan walked in to take a look, the one-meter-high plaque was only engraved with a sun pattern at the bottom, and a smaller Arabian time "Chang" written by ordinary people could not see it at all.

"Day!"

Feng Shaoyan saw the meaning of the pattern, but Deng Haonan rolled his eyes, thinking that Feng Shaoyan was swearing!

The sun is yours!

"It's a shame!"

Deng Jienan said: "Why do you draw a sun for no reason? ”

Raise your eyes to the sky, the sun is strong, piercing the eyes.

Wait for the light to come!

Deng Haonan thought about the riddle in his heart, but his footsteps moved, walked around the round mound altar, came to the backlight of the round mound altar, and watched the round mound altar and the sun retreat until he stepped on the projection position and stopped.

I looked at the projection, and then at the top of the round mound altar.

Na Haonan suddenly realized and said with a smile: "I know the answer!" What day is it? ”

Feng Shaoyan said: "July 29. ”

"What is the number of the Western calendar?"

Ding Daniu replied: "August 22." ”

Na Haonan said in his heart, there is a month short, but this does not affect.

"Let's go, and we'll come back tomorrow before dawn!"

Feng Shaoyan didn't know why, so he ordered someone to hang the plaque back, but the pattern was erased.

Waiting for the light does not mean waiting for the arrival of the age of civilization, but referring to the sunrise of the sun and the moon.

Deng Jienan cracked the meaning of the riddle and was in a very comfortable mood. After walking around the Temple of Heaven, the group left from the north gate of the garden.

Just after Na Haonan and his party left, a group of gray-clothed people came to the Yuanqiu altar, and one of them was a gray-clothed man and a white-clothed masked woman standing on the individual position where Deng Haonan was standing just now.

The man was none other than Liu Erhei, who was Haonan's acquaintance.

The woman in white said: "It looks like Deng Haonan has been found!" ”

Liu Erhei said respectfully: "It should be like this!" ”

At this time, several gray-clothed subordinates had already taken off the plaque again and sent it to the two.

"Tell the saint and the right envoy that the pattern has been tongue-stricken, and I can't see it."

Liu Erhei is the right envoy of the White Lotus Sect, and the masked woman in white next to him is the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect. As the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, she is the designated Sect Master's wife for the next Sect Master, and now this Holy Maiden is the thirty-sixth Holy Maiden.

The pattern has been scratched!

The two were a little disappointed!

The saint said: "Just now I seem to have heard Deng Haonan say to wait until tomorrow before sunrise to come back!" ”

Liu Erhei nodded and said, "The Holy Maiden is right!" They also said some dates, what is the 22nd day of the eighth month of the Western calendar. ”

At this time, a strong man said: "Since Deng Haonan has received the treasure, it means that the treasure is near here, we might as well dig three feet into the ground and get it first!" ”

It was Yan Bing, the White Lotus Sect's Houtu Banner Commander, who spoke, and Liu Erhei immediately said dissatisfiedly when he heard this: "Ridiculous! You dig three feet into the ground, what if you don't dig it? Isn't it a surprise to the snake? ”

Yan Bing said: "Hit the grass and scare the snake? I don't think so! If Deng Haonan comes over with a large team of people tomorrow, what will you rob others? ”

"You"

"What's wrong with me"

The two confronted each other, and the saint said unhappily: "Enough! ”

With a soft drink, full of majesty, Liu Erhei and Yan Bing immediately shut up, as if they were afraid of the saint's anger. Those who don't understand think that the two are purely at odds of opinion, but the descendants of the two know that their masters are both strong candidates for the next sect leader. Whoever can be the next sect leader can get the graceful and moving saint in front of him as the sect leader's wife.

Therefore, the two of them quarreled when they met, no matter what. Unless the Holy Maiden is here, they will do it, and sometimes even the sect leader Xu Hongru can't dissuade them.

"Why did Deng Haonan come over before sunrise tomorrow? Why wait until sunrise? ”

The saint followed Deng Haonan's example, came to the backlit side of the Yuanqiu altar, looked at the top of the altar and the sun, and then observed the feet. There was nothing left under his feet except for the glossy bluestone floor.

Liu Erhei said: "What is Wanqing looking for? ”

"Presumptuous!" Yan Bing said angrily: "Is your name the little junior sister?" ”

It turned out that the saint's maiden's name was Cai Wanqing, and she was still their little sister.

"That's it!" Wanqing said angrily: "Have you two made enough trouble? We are brothers and sisters. Look at the two of you? Like what? ”

The little junior sister was on fire, Liu Erhei and Yan Bing immediately laughed, grinning their teeth, and rolling their eyes angrily.

Yan Bing said with a smile: "There is really nothing on the ground!" There's really nothing but shadows! ”

Shadow?

Grace Sincerelyβ€»

The state deleted two rooms to see the problem, and said excitedly! "I'll know it for a long time! β€»

Liu Erhei and Yan Bing hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and Chen Wanqing said: "Di Haonan said that when the sunrise came again, it was because he knew that the location of the shadow at sunrise was the location of the treasure!" ”

Little sister, you are so smart! ”

The two hurriedly praised again and again, Chen Wanqing was naturally very proud, although he did not get a direct clue from Na Haonan, but Tong GuΓ² monitored Deng Haonan's every move, and Tong GuΓ² only got a key clue.

"Let's go back, come over and take out the treasure before dawn tomorrow!"

Everyone received the order, and Liu Erhei suddenly said: "I said senior sister, Deng Haonan will also come over before dawn tomorrow, with our current manpower, I'm afraid there will be problems in dealing with it." ”

Liu Erhei was repaired by Di Haonan's musket team last time, which caused him a strong psychological shadow, he has always regarded himself as a strong martial artist, but he was useless in front of the musket, which hit him quite hard.

"Yes!" Yan Bing also said worriedly: "Last time we entered the palace to save Wei Zhongxian, we didn't expect Ji Ge to fail, and we lost a lot of brothers. Now that the capital is under martial law, Deng Haonan's bastard's subordinates are very strict, and they can't get in without a stamped road ID card, and our brothers are all stuck outside the city. ”

Chen Wanqing said: "Tomorrow, you will kill the Ming army guarding the garden, change into the clothes of the Ming army, and block Na Haonan from coming in, as long as we can block the time of a stick of incense, we can get out of the treasure." ”

Liu Erhei shook his head and said, "The problem is that Deng Haonan won't come over until sunrise, what if he comes over in advance and waits?" With his identity, the defenders did not dare to stop him at all. ”

"Yes!" Yan Bing smiled and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

Chen Wanqing thought about it, so she said, "Don't worry!" I have a way! ”

The two listened attentively, and said gently: "My maid and he are old acquaintances, and they should be able to hold him back for a while." ”

"Didn't your maid go to Liaodong to spy on the situation?"

Chen Wanqing smiled bitterly: "Yes! Damn that Haonan, I just persuaded her to go undercover in the Liaodong Governor's Mansion, but Deng Haonan ran to the capital, and I had to redeploy. ”

Yan Bing asked, "Then how did you drag Deng Haonan?" ”

Chen Wanqing smiled and said, "I pretended to be my maid to see him." You grab your nose and start the treasure! ”

"No way!" Liu Erhei said: "It's too dangerous! What if you say that you leaked your mouth and were revealed by Deng Haonan? ”

"That's it!" Yan Bing was also worried: "Isn't that a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?" In case that kid has a lustful heart and a little sister."

"Phew!" She Wanqing said angrily: "What nonsense? ”

"That's it! What nonsense? Liu Erhei's wind direction turned very fast, and then said: "Let's change the method!" There is no such thing as a man who is not colorless! ”

Chen Wanqing smiled: "Don't worry! That Hao Nan has not seen us at all, I am sure enough, and besides, don't you have a good way? ”

"This catty."

Liu Erhei and Yan Bing scratched their heads at the same time, there was really no other way to delay time.

"That's it! That's it! Let's split up! ”

Chen Wanqing made a decision, Liu Erhei and Yan Bing had no better way, so they had to nag and ask Wanqing to be careful.

β€»β€»

While the great changes in Beijing, the fall of the eunuch party, and the celebration of the whole country, Shenyang Huang Taiji also got a tip, and quickly studied countermeasures.

Fan Wencheng said: "Today, the Ming Dynasty is turbulent, and the Liaodong Army has sent heavy troops into Beijing, and the Liaodong troops are bound to be insufficient. Second, the fall of the eunuch party, the Ming dynasty from the imperial court to the locality, will be because of the instant evacuation of the eunuch party's power, and the follow-up officials failed to fill the vacancy in time, leading to the inability of the government decree to work, and the Quartet is chaotic. Third, the Liaodong Army stationed troops in Jinggi, and the Ming Emperor would not dare to transfer the forbidden army to leave Beijing, so that the nine sides of the Great Wall would be isolated to deal with the threat of our Dajin and Mongolia, and there was nothing to fear. ”

Great Belle Daishan said: "If the Great Khan sends troops to attack Ming, this is the opportunity, I am willing to be the vanguard, for the Great Khan to pass the customs and break the mountain customs!" ”

Azig, Mang Gurtai, Amin, Dolyao, Zilharang and others asked for battle, followed by the Mongolian Eight Banners Gulus, Ombu Chuhuer, Geng Ge, Shan Handle and others asked for battle, and then the Han Army Banner asked for battle, and the voice of the war rose for a while.

At this time, Huang Taiji already had the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army, but the official names had not yet been determined, because there were many opponents of the Jurchen Eight Banners, and Huang Taiji had only set the names, and in fact there was no final distribution.

However, the biggest problem is in the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and the Eight Banners of the Mongolian Army have nothing to hinder. The original left battalion and right Xi of the Mongolian army, after the surrender of Horqin and other southern and eastern desert tribes, the strength of the Mongolian army has reached more than 100,000 people, but Huang Taiji did not dare to use them all, but only incorporated 40,000 of them into the eight banners of the Mongolian army.

Among them, the Gurusi was under the jurisdiction of the Mongolian army, and the army was 10,000 soldiers. Omubu Chuhuer led the Mongolian army with a yellow flag and a strength of 10,000 troops. Geng Ge commanded the Mongolian army with a white flag and a strength of 10,000 troops. The single commander of the Mongolian army was inlaid with a white flag and had a strength of 10,000 troops. The four flags of the Red Flag, the Red Flag, the Blue Banner and the Blue Banner were not established for the time being, and Huang Taiji listened to Fan Wencheng's opinions, and the remaining four banners were used to recruit the Mongolian tribes who had not yet surrendered to the Houjin.

Because Huang Taiji realized the improvement of the Great Ming Fire Weapon, the tactics of Nurhachi before were no longer good.

At the same time, Huang Taiji balanced the military power of the Eight Banners Lord Zhubeile. The Han Chinese are proficient in firearms. Set aside the Han people to set aside an army. The name "Wuzhenha" and "Wuzhen" mean "heavy" in Chinese. "Ha" means "soldier" or "army" in Chinese. Lifelong recuperation is the head of Aung Bang Jangjing. It is divided into two flags. Shi Tingzhu is the left wing of a banner to solidify the mountain and Ezhen Dutong, and Ma Guangyuan is the right wing of a banner to consolidate the mountain and Ezhen. The two banners had a total of 20,000 troops, and they were equipped with the guns and artillery of the Ming army captured in the early days, becoming the first firearms unit of the Jurchens.

The Eight Banners of the Han Army were also established, but there were only empty titles, and there was no real lack of arrangement. In Huang Taiji's words, these Han people needed to help the Dajin Kingdom establish meritorious deeds and ensure that they were loyal before they could be granted the official Eight Banners. Undoubtedly. This was a good way to encourage and stimulate the Han Chinese who surrendered to Jin to be willing to die.

Huang Taiji nodded. said: "At present, our strength has recovered, but we are not yet able to reach the level of my father's heyday. At the moment, we have five options. The first is to ignore it, continue to recuperate, and strengthen its strength in order to fight again. The second is to attack the Ming Dynasty and take advantage of your illness to kill you. The third is to attack the Liaodong Governor's Mansion to take revenge and regain the lost territory. Fourth, we will conquer Korea and break the blockade imposed on us by the Liaodong Governorate. The fifth is the second expedition to the Mongolian desert, conquer the remaining Mongolian tribes, and incorporate them into the territory of our Dajin to stabilize the rear. What do you think? ”

Among these, Fan Wencheng only provided Huang Taiji with three plans, but he didn't expect Huang Taiji to come up with five plans, which made Fan Wencheng admire.

However, in the eyes of others, this is simply a subtle strategy, which of the five strategies is good, and the banner masters don't know what to do.

At this time, it showed the level of education, and Dolxiang was the only literate Baylor after Emperor Taiji, and he was also the second Jurchen who could read the Han art of war.

"Although the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, it is far from the time when we can destroy him. It is important to know that the emaciated camel is larger than the horse. Dolxiang continued: "I built a war against Korea, led the blockade of the Second Eastern Governor's Mansion, obtained the salt we needed, and did not have the strength to fight the war with my billions of mules. Or an expedition to Mongolia to consolidate the rear, Mongolia crisscrossed the north of the Ming Dynasty, the defense of the Great Wall was lax, the Ming Dynasty only strengthened the Great Wall of Liaoxi, and we can break through the Great Wall from other easy to start. ”

The crowd praised Dol and said that he had a good plan. This made Huang Taiji a little unhappy.

Fan Wencheng saw Huang Taiji's concern. So he said: "None of the five strategies of the Great Khan is good! However, the expedition to Korea must divide troops to contain Yuan Chonghuan in Liaoxi and Mao Wenlong in Liaodong, and we need to attack from three sides and confuse the three sides at the same time. Then attack whichever side is the weakest! ”

Fan Wencheng's words seem more reasonable. So everyone turned to support Fan Wencheng's idea.

Huang Taiji was very depressed in his heart, but he secretly sighed that there were too few capable people under his command, and there were not many people who could give advice.

's own bricks and jade, almost to Dol Xiang wiped out, it seems that in the future, it will be directly arbitrary!

So Huang Taiji directly ordered the troops to divide into three routes and tentatively attack Yuan Chonghuan's department in Liaoxi, Mao Wenlong's department in Liaodong and North Korea.

After Jin conquered Korea, the king of Joseon sent envoys to Daming to ask for help, and at the same time sent Han Nuan to the Liaodong Governor's Mansion to ask for help.

After learning of the situation, the Ming court conveyed the order to Yuan Chonghuan, Mao Wenlong, and the Liaodong Governor's Office, requesting active preparations for war.

Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of western Liaoning, sent the generals to defend the three cities of Jinzhou, Zhongzuo and Daling, and Zhao led the teaching to garrison Jinzhou, and built a wall to defend the city. Because Yuan Chonghuan had seen new words for Wei Zhongxian, and the last time Empress Zhang sent an envoy unsuccessfully, Zhu Youxiao did not trust Yuan Chonghuan, so the imperial court ordered You Shilu to come to Zhao to lead the teaching, and Zuo Fu was the forward chief military officer, stationed in Dalinghe.

However, You Shilu had not yet arrived in Jinzhou, and Zuo Fu had not yet entered Daling City, and the Houjin army arrived in Jinzhou on April 61, the seventh year of the Apocalypse. Surrounded on all sides. Zhao Shujiao and Zhongguan Ji Yongying defended the city together. At the same time, he sent an envoy to negotiate peace, intending to delay the division and wait for help. The envoy failed to negotiate peace with the vanguard three times, and the Jiannu army besieged the city and attacked it continuously.

Dai Shan experienced the humiliation of being captured and imprisoned, and the pain of Da Ming was to the bone, which was originally just a tentative attack, but it turned out to be a strong attack, and the director did a fake show. Daishan attacked for 14 days, and then divided his troops to attack Ningyuan again. Yuan Chonghuan has been guarding Ningyuan, and the lieutenant Liu Yingkun and the deputy envoy have all supervised the soldiers to defend the spleen, and they are in the camp howling and shooting with artillery. And Man Gui also led You Shilu and Zu Dashou to rescue with soldiers, and fought outside the city, killing and injuring each other, and Man Gui was counted as arrows. For the first time, the Guanning Iron Cavalry showed strong combat effectiveness, which made Dai Shan dare not underestimate it. So Dai Shan attacked Ning far away. He returned to Jinzhou to continue the attack.

Since Daishan was only a tentative attack, many of the soldiers were now injured, so they withdrew on June 5. However, the two cities of the Great and Small Linghe that Yuan Chonghuan had worked so hard to build were destroyed.

Then Yuan Chonghuan sent an envoy to negotiate peace with Huang Taiji, who saw that Liaoxi could not be attacked, so he agreed to strike the army. Yuan Chonghuan thought that everything would be fine if Huang Taiji did not attack Liaoxi, but in fact, he fell for Huang Taiji's strategy, because Huang Taiji's mind was not in Liaoxi at all. It's North Korea.

Similarly, before attacking Korea, Huang Taiji sent Azig to carry out a tentative attack on Mao Wenlong's troops in Gaizhouwei. After the last defeat, Mao Wenlong's troops have been drastically reduced, but after more than a year of exhibition, there are now about 20,000 people. In addition, Mao Wenlong used northern specialties to exchange weapons with the Liaodong Governor's Office, and now he already has a lot of cannons.

Azig attacked Gaizhouwei, and Mao Wenlong's troops returned fire with artillery shells, killing and wounding many enemies. However, Azig saw that Mao Wenlong's defense was strong, so he sent a small force of cavalry to surround Gaizhou City to attract the city's artillery. According to Azig's analysis, Mao Wenlong's firearms had a low hit rate, a slow artillery degree, and a far worse reserve of shells. So he played a war of attrition with Mao Wenlong, constantly tempting the city's artillery to open fire.

Over time, Mao Wenlong understood Azig's intentions. So it was ordered to save shells and gunpowder. Azig originally wanted to bypass Gaizhou Wei and march into the Liaodong Governor's Mansion, Fuzhou Wei and Jinzhou Wei, but he had lingering palpitations, and in order to preserve his strength, he canceled the plan. In Gaizhouwei and Mao Wenlong's department held each other for a month, Mao Wenlong's shells were basically consumed. At this time, Azig chose to retreat, he knew that if he forced Mao Wenlong again, Mao Wenlong would go to the Liaodong Governor's Mansion to borrow cannonballs and gunpowder. His purpose was only to consume Mao Wenlong's artillery power and prevent Mao Wenlong from having the strength to attack the Jurchen city wall. And Mao Wenlong's department obviously didn't dare to come out to fight a field battle with the Jurchens. Thus, the strategic objective was achieved.

In this way, Huang Taiji and Yuan Chonghuan reached a peace, stationed troops outside the territory controlled by Mao Wenlong, and contained Mao Wenlong's troops, so that the strategic deployment of attacking Korea was completed.

Jinghai Hou Mansion, when that Haonan returned. has been obtained from the Liaodong Governor's Mansion flying pigeon biography.

Regarding Houjin's actions, Deng Haonan knew very well in his heart that there would definitely be no problem in Liaoxi. Huang Taiji's attack on Mao Wenlong's department in Liaodong is exactly what Deng Haonan wants to see, and if he consumes Mao Wenlong, he can make himself have no potential threat in Liaodong.

As for Huang Taiji's attack on North Korea, Deng Haonan originally planned to rescue.

But think about it now, his main force is in the Beijing Division, and there is only the defensive force in the Liaodong Governor's Mansion. If you send troops to rescue North Korea, what if Mao Wenlong makes a stumbling block for himself? After all, Mao Wenlong is a chief military officer who listens to propaganda and does not listen to tunes. There is nothing he can't do, and there's nothing he doesn't dare to do.

Moreover, Deng Haonan thought about it, and he also hoped to occupy North Korea in his heart. However, due to the relationship between North Korea and the Ming Dynasty. He couldn't achieve that, the goal. If I remember correctly, if there is no rescue from the Ming Dynasty this time, North Korea will surrender to Huang Taiji. Once the DPRK surrendered to the Emperor Taiji. Then Deng Haonan can justifiably send troops to occupy North Korea.

"Your Excellency is clever!" Feng Shaoyan said: "According to his subordinates, now that Huang Taiji has compiled the Mongolian military banner and the Han military banner, although the strength of the army cannot reach the strength recommended by Nurha Cheningyuan in the Great War, it is almost the same. Attacking North Korea, with North Korea's capabilities, will basically be wiped out in a month. At present, Yuan Chonghuan, Mao Wenlong, plus the Korean army and Huang Taiji are consumed. When they are almost consumed, the adults will send troops again, which will be a multiplier effect with half the effort. ”

Deng Haonan said with a smile: "I didn't think about it that much, I just wanted the North Korean army to be defeated by Huang Taiji." Then to the weakness of the king of Korea. Surrender and pay tribute to Huang Taiji. At that time, I will be able to legitimately serve North Korea. It is effortless to control North Korea and kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Your Excellency is wise!"

Feng Shaoyan was impressed by Deng Haonan's repeated strategic methods, and then the two discussed some matters and then went back to rest.

The next day, before dawn. Deng Haonan was called up. In the mansion, Feng Shaoyan and the others had already gotten up, and Ding Daniu and the five hundred guards had finished breakfast early, brought all the tools and prepared to go to the Temple of Heaven to hunt for treasures.

Deng Haonan has always been a lazy saint. got up in a daze, and under the service of several palace maids, Meimei enjoyed the emperor's washing and rescue treatment, and she was happy.

Of course, no matter how busy Deng Haonan is, he must have breakfast.

At this time, Ding Daniu came in to report and inform the old man of Na Haonan to visit. , 6 mountain horns, chapters more. Support the author, support genuine reading! H
