On June 21 of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Emperor Taiji of Houjin Tiancong Khan personally led the Zhenghuang and Huang banners and the Han army of 5,000 out of Shenyang to Guangning, and stationed in the Xinliao River for three days, on June 27, the sweat tent went to Yizhou.

On the same day, Dabeile Daishan led the three flags of red, white, and inlaid white with the Mongolian tribes to camp in the old Liao River, camped for ten miles, and the flags were displayed, and the tribes from all over the world came to vote. On the 28th, the 40,000 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry of the Daishan Department attacked the east and west, turned and suddenly moved south, and the front of the troops pointed directly in the direction of Jinzhou.

When the Khan's tent arrived in Yizhou, Sanbel Mang Gurtai took his younger brothers Ten Beledes and Twelve Bel Azig out of the city and knelt down to welcome Tiancong Khan.

So far, the small Yizhou gathered the Houjin army, counting 56,000 soldiers with five banners, including Zhenghuang, Huang, Zhenglan, Red, and Blue, and countless Hannu masters.

As soon as he entered the city of Yizhou, Huang Taiji did not rest, that is, he ordered the military to discuss, and all the generals and colonels above the flag Niu Lu should be included in the discussion, and they should be consulted with the sweat account to the Han officials.

The accompanying Zhubeile was puzzled by the military discussion when the Khan King Fang arrived in Yizhou, but the Khan King had an order, and no one dared to ask what was going on, and honestly entered the military discussion.

…………

"The ministers have followed the order of the Khan to investigate the situation of Dalinghe City, and there are 15,000 Liaodong soldiers in the city, 12,000 people who built the city, and 8,000 Han people. The city of Jinzhou is very empty, and Sun Chengzong has newly transferred 6,000 troops from Song Wei, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, and Wu Xiang, the general soldier of Ningyuan, to garrison it, and the governor Qiu Hejia has taken over with Erbeile in Yongping two years ago, and this person was raised ...... in the first year of Chongzhen."

Mang Gurtai was talking endlessly about the information of the Ming army, but he didn't want Huang Taiji to suddenly raise his hand slightly, stopped him, and then asked: "Ben Khan asked Tu Lai to lead a Niu Lu to Yizhou with the third brother, I don't know where this slave is now, why don't you see him come to the army?" ”

Mang Gurtai was about to say that the slave was tied up in the camp, but his brother Shibeile Dege preemptively said: "King Hui Khan, Tu Yana slave did not obey the military orders of the Khan King, and led the troops to fight with the Ming army without authorization, and the subordinate brother has already tied him up and detained him in the camp, because he is the Khan's person, the younger brother and the third brother dare not dispose of it without authorization." Since the king of the Khan came, the younger brother handed over the slaves to the king of the Khan for punishment. After speaking, he pretended to glance at Mang Gultai casually.

"Violated military orders?"

In the matter of Tu Yan, Huang Taiji had already received the Azig secret report, but he was pretending to be confused, and asked Mang Gurtai: "Third brother, since you are a slave who has violated the military order, why don't you see it mentioned in your military report?" ”

"The minister thought that the Khan King was coming anyway, so he didn't report it." Mang Gurtai replied very sincerely, the reason why he didn't report to Shenyang was that Huang Taiji was coming, since people were coming anyway, what should he do.

His answer made the Derge class next to him change his face when he heard it: What, Mang Gurtai didn't report to Shenyang! Is he confused?

Azig on the side had the same expression, standing with his eyes and nose and nose and heart, but Zilharang's heart trembled, and he glanced at Mang Gurtai with deep meaning. Du Du, Yue Tuo, Tabai and other little Baylors who came with the sweat tent didn't think much about it, and stood there respectfully one by one looking at Huang Taiji.

There are dozens of members of the Jiala Ezhen and Niu Lu Ezhen of each banner in the tent, and there is a group of Han generals who have surrendered to the generals, and the idle Han officials are standing behind, and now it is the answer between the King of Khan and the Three Beylers, and no one dares to intervene.

What is Ben Khan coming anyway, so there is no need to report it!

Huang Taiji secretly hated in his heart, Mang Gurtai didn't put himself in his eyes more and more, and it was up to the master to beat the dog, Tu Cheng was a slave I personally led, even if he violated the military order, he took his post first, why should he be tied up in public, this is obviously a little bit of face not to me. When I came, did I say to you that the bull is under your control! Hmph, don't I, the third brother, want to follow Amin's example and go against me?

Dissatisfied, his face remained silent, and his fat ass moved slightly to make himself sit more comfortably.

He said, "Third brother, ask someone to bring that slave over, and Ben Khan will interrogate him." ”

"Wow!"

Mang Gurtai didn't say anything, but turned his head to give a few orders to one of his Jiala, and the Jiala hurriedly went out of the tent to mention the map.

………

After a short time, the five-flowered Tu Lai was pushed into the tent, and when he saw the situation in the tent, Tu Lai knew that the Khan King had arrived.

With a sad face, he knelt on the ground with a "plop", crawled a few steps forward, and wailed: "King Khan, King Khan, the slave is wronged, the slave is wronged!" ”

Seeing Tu Lai like this, Huang Taiji was angry, slapped the desk in front of him again, his fat face was angry, and he shouted: "You slave, what kind of wrongs are you shouting!" ”

"Minions"

Tu Cheng was going to say that Mang Gurtai was good at tying himself up, and forced him to withdraw his troops, so that he could not win, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that Huang Taiji was looking at him with an angry face, and he couldn't help but shudder, so frightened that he only muttered two words of "slave" in a low voice, but he couldn't say anything.

"You slave knows what a crime you have committed!" Huang Taiji snorted slightly, and his sharp eyes not only fell on Tu Ao's face, but also swept on the gang of Baylors.

Seeing that King Khan's face was extremely gloomy, Tu Yi was even more afraid, and he didn't dare to shout injustice, but instead kowtowed a few times with a "horn and horn", and said in a loud voice: "The slave knows the crime, the slave knows the crime!" …”

I didn't want the king of Khan to ask him: "Since you are guilty, then Ben Khan asks you, what crime do you know?" ”

"This minion is..."

This question stumped Tu Tuo, and he didn't know whether he should say that he was guilty of not obeying the orders of the Khan and engaging the Ming army without authorization, or whether he should have won but did not win, and lost his army.

If it is the former, he will be guilty of this sin, but he will be able to share it by winning the battle; If it were the latter, the sin would not have been on him, but on Manggultai, and if it had not been for the fact that Sambel had forced him to withdraw his troops, how could he have been victorious and not victorious, and he would have broken the lives of two hundred warriors inlaid with yellow and red in vain.

When Tu Lai was thinking about what to say in order to push his mistakes away, Huang Taiji stood up "open-mindedly", pointed at him impatiently and shouted: "Bastard, you don't know what you have committed, what crime do you know?" Are you fooling Ben Khan! ”

Hearing this, Tu Yi stammered in fright and said, "King Khan, the slave is committing a crime... The offense is... Alas... King Khan, the slave really doesn't know what crime he has committed, Sanbeile is tied up with the minion, and the slave is wronged! ”

As soon as the words fell, his body was kicked to the ground heavily, and an angry shout sounded in his ears: "Okay, you dog slave, you dare to shout injustice!" ”

Tu Lai was afraid of the Khan King, but he was not afraid of the reckless Gurtai, he was kicked by him in front of the Khan King, Tu Lai was very unwilling, opened his mouth and said: "Three Belles, the slave is wronged, if you didn't force the slave to withdraw the army, how could the slave be victorious and not win..."

Seeing that this slave still dared to talk back, Mang Gurtai was furious: "You still dare to say it!" "Raise your hand to slap this slave in the mouth. Without waiting for him to make a move, Huang Taiji's voice behind him rang out: "Third brother, who is angry, you are also the Hebeile of my Dajin Kingdom, don't you think your hands are dirty when you start beating this minion?" ”

Huang Taiji's words, Mang Gurtai couldn't help but listen, and put down his arms in a sneer. He didn't notice that his brother Dege's face was already the color of pig liver.

Mang Gurtai beat him in front of him, and Huang Taiji was even more angry in his heart, but he covered it up well, and it was not the time to clean up Mang Gurtai. After taking a few steps forward, he smiled coldly at Tu Lai on the ground: "I ask you, have you brought back the bones of the dead soldiers of Niu Lu?" ”

Tu Cheng didn't expect the King of Khan to reply to him, so he could only say in a hurry: "Back to the King Khan, the slave was supposed to snatch back the bones of Erlang, but Sanbeile tied up the minion, so he ......"

Without waiting for him, Huang Taiji's face pulled down again, and said angrily: "You slave, the soldiers fought bloody battles with you, and died in battle, and you abandoned their corpses and bones, causing their heads to be cut off by the Ming people to repay the reward, can you be at peace with your heart!" ”

After speaking, his eyes suddenly moved to Mang Gurtai, but his mouth was directed at Tu Lai and said: "The ancients talked about the horse leather shroud, but you ignored them, just ask where your conscience is as a minion!" Since the first Khan started his army, I have been of the same heart from top to bottom, and there has never been any such thing as abandoning the bones of soldiers, but you, a slave, have done such a distressing thing, what kind of crime should you be guilty of! ”

Tu Lai hadn't reacted yet, but Mang Gurtai's face had already turned blue and white for a while, he could hear it, Huang Taiji was scolding Tu Lai clearly, but wasn't he scolding himself secretly!

Huang Taiji scolded Tu for abandoning the bones of the soldiers, but it was Mang Gurtai who ordered the withdrawal of troops, and the responsibility for this abandoned corpse was also his Mang Gurtai anyway, but Huang Taiji angrily scolded Tu Lai in front of Mang Gurtai for having no conscience, which was clearly to embarrass Mang Gurtai.

The big and small Baylors are not fools, they have long understood who Huang Taiji is scolding, and they can't help but sweat for Mang Gurtai.

Zilharang even wondered if Huang Taiji was going to dispose of Mang Gultai in the same way as he did with Amin.

Huang Taiji didn't say anything more to point to Sang and scolding Huai, and returned to the sweat seat in anger, and said to Tu Ran: "You slave, you have done such a beast thing, this Khan can't spare you." I should have killed you with a knife, but I thought that your father was the hero of the founding of my Dajin, and Ben Khan didn't want to bear the infamy after killing the hero, so from now on, hand over the Niu Lu coat, and listen to it in front of the account in the future. ”

"The slave Xie Khan's grace not to kill!"

As soon as he heard that the King of Khan would not kill himself, as long as he handed over Niu Lu, Tu Yi's heart immediately fell, and he hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, got up and slowly retreated with his head drooped.

The generals of the Eight Banners of Baylor in the tent thought that the King of Khan had dealt with Tu Lai and was going to transfer troops to arrange the attack on Ming, but they didn't want the King of Khan to suddenly be dissatisfied and said to Mang Gultai:

"Third brother, it's not that you're the younger brother, although this slave doesn't listen to military orders and fights with the Ming army without authorization, but since he wins, why are you confused and want him to withdraw his troops? You know that this retreat, not only will the bones of the soldiers not be returned, but the Ming army will also underestimate my big gold. ”

"The ministers are single-minded, and only the orders of the Khan are obeyed!"

Mang Gurtai obviously held a grudge against Huang Taiji's words just now, and he was angry in his heart, and said in a very blunt tone: "King Khan has clearly ordered that he must not fight with the Ming army, and his ministers will naturally do their best. If the king of Khan thinks that the minister has done something wrong, but he punishes the minister, the minister will never complain! ”
