Failed to capture the ancestor Dashou, Huang Taiji was extremely angry, and on the way back to the big tent of the Chinese army, his face was always blue, and there was no joy of winning the battle.

Fan Wencheng observed his words, and knew that the King of Khan was worried about not being able to capture Zu Dashou alive, thought about it, stepped forward, and said respectfully: "King Khan doesn't have to be too annoyed, the slave thinks that although he didn't catch Zu Dashou alive this time, it has made him frightened, that is, in the future, there will really be reinforcements from the Ming Kingdom, Zu Dashou was also bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years, and he will never go out of the city to receive reinforcements again, so that our goal has been achieved." ”

Seeing this, Ning also stepped forward and persuaded: "Wen Cheng is right, King Khan should be more relaxed." As long as Zu Dashou doesn't come out, he is not afraid that he will join forces inside and outside the Ming army, we just need to concentrate all our efforts on Fu Zhangchun's troops and horses that drove from the pass. ”

"What the two gentlemen said, how can Ben Khan not know. It's just that the ancestor Dashou is a rare good general, Ben Khan cherishes talents, and remembers that God has the virtue of a good life, he can't bear to kill tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city, so he has the intention of soliciting, only hating Zu Dashou for failing to understand Ben Khan's painstaking efforts, and still serving himself for Chongzhen's children, refusing to surrender, making Ben Khan heartbroken. ”

Being persuaded by Fan Ning and the others, Huang Taiji's mood was slightly better, and he knew that what they said was right, Zu Dashou was already frightened after this battle, and it was difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and he would never go out of the city again. But it's a pity that Zu Dashou refused to surrender, and he couldn't help but regret it, and a look of loss appeared on his face, as if he was unwilling.

Seeing this, Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "King Khan doesn't have to be too sad, the slave thinks that Zu Dashou surrenders sooner or later, and if he doesn't surrender now, I'm afraid that he is worried about the generals in the city, and he has the idea of reinforcements from the Ming Court, so he resists stubbornly." As long as he is told to know that the reinforcements of the Dao are completely hopeless, and then send the old generals of the Liaodong Army to say surrender, I am afraid that the king of Khan will be able to return with good generals. ”

Hearing this, Huang Taiji nodded, suddenly became arrogant, raised his hand to guide Fang Jinzhou, and said in a loud voice: "There is no one in the Ming Dynasty, that Zhang Chun is just a flower armor and old decay, what can he do!" Could it be that Chongzhen Xiao'er thinks that such a bad old man can also break my golden elite soldiers! Ha Lu Ha, ridiculous, really ridiculous! ”

Ning Wan and I also laughed, and said there: "The skills of the Ming Kingdom are poor, so that an old man leads the army to the battle, compared with the twilight Ming Kingdom, my Dajin is like the sun rising in the east, and my Eight Banners soldiers are like tigers descending the mountain, Zhang Chun Lao'er, don't worry!" Chongzhen children, it is not enough to worry! ”

"Sooner or later, my Dajin will enter the customs to be the master of the Central Plains! In the past, when Yuan Chonghuan of the Ming Kingdom was there, Ben Khan thought that he was just occupying the border and being a vassal of his Ming State, but today, the flowers and rivers of the Han people are all in front of him, and Ben Khan does not take it, but he is afraid that he will be sent by heaven! After the ancestor Dashou was surrendered and the city of Dalinghe was destroyed, Ben Khan was going to send an army to the pass again, and asked him to Chongzhen Zhilu Dao, now it is different from the past! When he said this, Huang Taiji's face showed a heroic look, and when he raised his hand, he looked like a hero.

Taken in the heroic style of the male lord, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan and I praised in unison: "King Khan is wise!" ”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Ning Wan's mind, and a stirring spirit opened his mouth and said: "The Khan King Tianzong is a talent, an immortal king, and a slave who thinks that he should ascend to the great treasure, call the Ninety-Five Honor, and fight against the Ming Kingdom. ”

When to ascend to the great treasure?

Fan Wencheng was stunned, Ning Wan, I am persuading the emperor Taiji to be the emperor?

reacted, and his heart couldn't help beating, Huang Taiji called the emperor, they are the real ministers of the dragon!

Excited, he hurriedly echoed: "The slave also thinks that the Khan King should inherit the mandate of heaven, obey the will of the people, and claim the emperor to ascend the throne!" ”

"Ascending the throne?"

Huang Taiji's performance was not as excited as Fan Ning and the others, he groaned slightly on the horse, and shook his head categorically: "It's not the time for Ben Khan to be the emperor. ”

"King Khan! …”

Fan Wencheng was just about to open his mouth to persuade him to advance, but was stopped by Huang Taiji waving his hand, his eyes turned to the big tent of the Chinese army, and he snorted slightly: "I am the king of Khan, and there are people who dare to draw a sword to threaten me, and I don't listen to the order and become the emperor, what can I do?" Can the two gentlemen guarantee that everyone in Dajin will obey me, the emperor? ”

"This..."

Fan Wencheng knew that Emperor Taiji was talking about Mang Gurtai, and it was difficult to answer.

Ning Wan hesitated for a moment, and said: "King Khan, the three major Baylors are drunk and crazy, and their heads are not clear, so they offended the King of Khan, and the minions look at it, and the three Baylors don't seem to really have any objections." ”

Hearing this, Huang Taiji snorted angrily: "He has no objection, which one of the others still has objection!" Thinking of the conflict with Mang Gurtai before the war, the anger immediately rushed up again: Mang Gurtai, I have always tolerated you, but you actually regarded Ben Khan as weak and bullied, and dared to draw a sword in front of Ben Khan, Ben Khan will never let you go this time!

Kill and reappear: The four Buddhas have gone to Amin, and the remaining two are also in the way of the eyes, so it is better to remove one more today!

After making up his mind to get rid of Mang Gurtai, Huang Taiji quietly ordered the guards to send orders to the banners, and ordered the banner lord and the Mongolian princes to meet in the big tent.

…………

Huang Taiji had just returned to the sweat tent, and the armor on his body had not yet been removed, and Daishan, Jilharang, Yuetuo, Abatai, Azig, Dolgon, Duoyi and other large and small beylers led the Eight Banners Generals, and the Mongolian princes all arrived.

"See the Khan!"

After everyone bowed down, Yue Tuo, the eldest son of Daishan, took the lead and said: "The minister heard that the three major Baylors showed their blades in front of the emperor today, which is a crime of great rebellion, if they are not severely punished, the way of the monarch and the minister will be abolished!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang Taiji immediately looked at Dai Shan, and saw that the latter was still there, and he had a number in his heart, and the second brother of the secret road was really facing me, knowing that it was inconvenient for him to come forward, so he asked his son to come forward, but he really supported me, and he should live up to him in the future.

When everyone received the order to come to the big tent of the Chinese army, they thought that they were going to discuss the matter of a war with their ancestors, but Yue Tuo suddenly wanted to severely punish Mang Gurtai, and many people did not know about it, and they were a little surprised for a while. Those Mongolian princes were even more dumbfounded, they all heard that Dajin was in charge of the four major beylers, but now someone openly proposed to severely punish Mang Gurtai, one of the four major beylers, does this mean that the political situation of Dajin is going to change?

Dolgon immediately understood the position of the second brother Daishan, and did not hesitate to echo it: "If the emperor shows his sword, his crime should be punished, and the younger brother thinks that Mang Gurtai should be executed!" ”

Execute?!

There was another scream in the tent. Azig and Duoyi didn't look at Dolgon, one brother and one brother looked at the nose and the nose and heart, but with the disposition of the Khan, the courtiers had no opinion.

"Offending the Great Khan is a capital offense, let alone drawing a sword!"

Huang Taiji's love will Gushan Ezhen Ahsan and Egu Darhan jumped out one after another to accuse Mang Gurtai, and everyone asked Huang Taiji to immediately execute Mang Gurtai.

In the tent, none of the people with the blue flag came, and the yellow and yellow were led by Huang Taiji, who naturally fully supported Huang Taiji, and the red flag of Dai Shan, the red flag of Azig, the white flag of Dolgon, and the white flag of Duoyi were also voiced in favor of the severe punishment of Gurtai under the acquiescence of the flag owner. There was no reaction to the blue flag of Vizil Harang.

With the support of the Six Banners, Huang Taiji didn't care whether Ji'er Harang supported it or not, listening to the shouting and killing sound of the tent, Huang Taiji was really complacent, but he suddenly sighed, looked very depressed, and raised his hand weakly, signaling that the tent was quiet. Then he said slowly:

"Ben Khan was supported by Beyler, inherited the throne of Khan, had two elder brothers, and beloved brothers below. Father Khan often said, a thought in the heart, the sky will know, there are gods on the head, Ben Khan thinks that everything can be done with a public heart, no partiality, are their own brothers, there is no need for partiality, if you feel that Ben Khan has something unfair, you can put forward, if you think that Ben Khan is not virtuous, the second brother can also convene a meeting of Baylor, and set up a new king. It's just that the third brother Mang Gurtai defiled Ben Khan for no reason, and even openly threatened me with a knife, which made Ben Khan really unbearable. Today, all the brothers are here, all the banners are solid, the mountains are true, and the Mongolian princes are also here, so Ben Khan will tell you the truth. I have called you not to discuss how to cure the sins of the third brother, but to discuss who will succeed Ben Khan. ”

When Dai Shan heard that Huang Taiji was going to do it, he was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up and said hurriedly: "King Khan, let's talk about things, King Khan is wise and benevolent, we are all happy and convinced, except for that madman in Dajin Kingdom, who dares to say that King Khan has no virtue?" Mang Gurtai deceived the king, let's deal with it as the crime of bullying the king, how can the king of Khan not do it? If others agree, I won't agree to do so! ”

The Baylors were not stupid, only Duoyi's heart skipped a beat, but when they saw a sneer on the corner of Azig and Dolgon's mouths, they hurriedly understood that the fat fourth was acting.

Abatai coughed and said, "King Khan is wise, we sincerely support him, please let the King Khan calm the wrath of thunder, and do not be like a rude person." ”

He took the lead, and Azig and they were busy and expressed their attitudes, and everyone said that King Khan was destined by heaven, and everyone really supported him.

After listening to the statements of the brothers, Huang Taiji was satisfied, and knew that at this time, he directly ordered the execution of Mang Gurtai, and all banners would not be dissatisfied. But he didn't want to bear the charge of killing his brother, but said sadly:

"What happened today, Ben Khan is really very sad." looked at Dai Shan, "Second brother, you know the way, and the third brother often caused trouble when he was young. At the age of nine, he punched Uncle Lidun's young grandson out of the eyeball. When you meet an elderly person on the road, you never know how to avoid it. He also set fire to the salt shop of the official's house, and often bullied the children of the minister's family, for which the minister's family often went to his father Khan to complain.

His father Khan scolded him for disobedience and threw him out of the house several times. Twice, my father Khan even wanted to learn from him and killed his relatives in righteousness, and each time it was my mother who interceded, and my father Khan forgave him. When the third brother was kicked out of the house, it was Ben Khan who brought him food and clothes again and again. Without Ben Khan and Ben Khan's mother, the third brother would have gone with Da Qi a long time ago. Later, the third brother made several military exploits before becoming the ruling Baylor. But he was a drunk, and everyone said that he killed his biological mother! On the day of the great sacrifice of Father Khan, he drank a lot of wine at home, screamed and danced, and was drunk, without the love of a son! ”

Speaking of this, his gaze turned to the brothers and nephews, and continued: "In the previous expedition, he encouraged the second brother to withdraw the army halfway. These Ben Khans forgave him, and Ben Khan did not dare to forget his father Khan's admonition that 'brothers are of the same mind, and their strength is gold'. Ben Khan's love for his brother and his brothers is so deep that sometimes he is inevitably responsible, why? It is intended to complete the great cause of the father Khan to extinguish the Ming Dynasty. Ask yourself, Ben Khan is dedicated to my gold, and he has no shame in his heart. Mang Gurtai sees me as deceitful, and intends to draw a sword to kill me, if he really fights alone, is he Mang Gurtai the opponent of Ben Khan?! … Ben Khan can't fight with him, not because he is afraid, but because he is afraid of the king and his ministers, and he is afraid that he will be laughed at by the world. ”

Speaking of the sad place, Huang Taiji actually shed tears, and his eyes swept to the guards standing in the corner of the tent, and said to them both aggrieved and angry: "Mang Gurtai has drawn his sword, why don't you pull it out, why don't you stand up and stop in front of Ben Khan, and you will watch Ben Khan be humiliated by him?" The Han people say that the monarch's father is in trouble, and the minister should die, what crime should you be guilty of? ”

"The Khan spares his life, the Khan spares his life!"

Oza and the guards were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground with a "plop", and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Huang Taiji stopped looking at them, turned his head angrily, and didn't say a word.

Ozha is Zilharang's brother-in-law, and he was afraid that Huang Taiji would kill his brother-in-law, so he hurriedly stood up and interceded for him: "King Khan, the guards are all at fault, but the crime is not to death, it is better to fine ten taels of silver and one horse as a punishment." ”

After all, it is a matter of the two brothers, how can the guards really jump out and do it, Dai Shan considered this, and echoed: "If you don't punish the past, I think you can do what Ji'er Harang said." ”

"Ben Khan listens to the second brother." Huang Taiji didn't really want to execute these guards, and he went down the steps.

"Since the three major beylers should be punished heavily, then the minions will lead people to arrest him and hand him over to the king of Khan for disposal!"

Ahsan, who was loyal to the Lord, was about to take someone to arrest Mang Gultailai, but a guard outside the tent came to report: "King Khan, the three great beylers, accompanied by the ten beylers, are kneeling outside the tent and crying, saying that early this morning, he drank four glasses of wine on an empty stomach, and after the attack of alcohol, he began to talk nonsense, and now he does not know what he said and did at that time. He begged the Khan for forgiveness. ”
