For a long time, the Later Jin Dynasty had a large number of detailed works in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, specializing in exploring the intelligence of the Ming Dynasty.

These fine works are not the real Jianzhou Jurchens, but more of the Ming merchants and people who were bought, especially the merchants on the border of the Ming Dynasty, many of whom were spies of Jiannu.

However, in this time and space, after Zhu Youzhen was reborn, he paid special attention to the blockade of Houjin. From Liaodong to Xuanda, a tight blockade line was established, especially after Hong Chengchou massacred the Jin merchants in Zhangjiakou, the Ming Dynasty merchants who passed through the grassland to Jiannu were almost cut off, and it was difficult for Houjin to receive news from the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, such a big thing as the civil unrest in northern Shaanxi could not be hidden from Hou Jin's ears and eyes, Huang Taiji knew that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty personally built a Praetorian Guard, and also drove the Praetorian Guard to northern Shaanxi. At that time, when Zhu Youzhen was driving a personal expedition, Huang Taiji personally led troops to attack Liaoxi in order to respond to the uprising of the displaced people in the Ming Dynasty, hoping to attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty court and prevent the Ming Dynasty from encircling and suppressing the rebellious refugees.

However, Huang Taiji's purpose did not succeed at that time, the Ming Dynasty did not send reinforcements to Liaoxi, and he also ran into a bloody encounter in Ningyuan.

Huang Taiji also knew so much about the intelligence of the Praetorian Guard, because the next thing was that Hong Chengchou slaughtered the Jin merchants to rectify the Xuanfu, so that he lost a lot of intelligence sources.

Now Huang Taiji is convinced that it is this Praetorian Guard army that is attacking Dajin in Liaodong, otherwise, it is impossible not to see this army in the territory of the Ming Kingdom!

Although he has not yet received the exact news that this Praetorian Guard army will attack Kuandian and Jianzhou, Huang Taiji clearly knows that the situation in the country is probably already very critical.

Amin and Dege may not be able to detect the conspiracy of the Ming army, once they transfer the remaining bannermen to deal with the Ming army and Liu Xingzuo's troops in southern Liaoning, then Kuandian and Hetuara must be very empty, and the Ming army will attack with their troops......

Huang Taiji didn't dare to think about the consequences.

"If this Praetorian Guard is really in Liaodong, if this Praetorian Guard raids Kuandian, Hetuara may be in danger, but the problem is that we are in the territory of Daming, even if we want to return to help, it is too late, and now only Pegasus has sent a message to Amidege, asking them to quickly send troops back to defend Hetuala." Dai Shan sighed.

Huang Taiji's face was gloomy, and he immediately wrote an order, put it in the letterbox after writing, and ordered Pegasus to send it back to Shenyang.

"If you want me to say that since it's too late to return to the division, let's simply not go back, and directly attack the camp of the Liaoxi soldiers, after annihilating the Liaoxi soldiers, there will be no strong army in the Ming Kingdom to stop us, and then we will wave the army to attack Beijing City, and the capital of the Ming Kingdom will be attacked, and the army in Liaodong will definitely be recalled to help, and the crisis will be solved!" Mang Gurtai said suddenly.

Dai Shan sighed: "Old Five, what you said is easy, even if we can defeat the Liaoxi Army, but where is it so easy to capture Beijing City, even if we can capture Beijing, how many Eight Banner warriors will we lose?" ”

Mang Gurtai was unconvinced: "How difficult can it be, why should the warriors of the Eight Banners attack the city in person?" Didn't we capture more than a dozen young and strong people of the Ming Kingdom, and drive them to attack the city. This group of people is dead, let's go elsewhere to arrest, anyway, there are many people in this Ming Kingdom, and we can't catch them all, and Beijing City will always fall one day. ”

I have to say that what Mang Gurtai said is still very reasonable, at least it sounds reasonable, and many young Baylors are moved.

Anyway, it's too late to rush back, why not destroy the Liaoxi soldiers to attack Beijing City, as long as you can break through Beijing City, you will destroy the Ming Kingdom, even if you lose Hetuara City, what is it?

Dai Shan sighed: "Old Five, you haven't figured out a question, can I afford to fight with Mingguo?" Even if you can defeat the Liaoxi soldiers, how much time will it take to capture the city of Beijing? Once the exact news that their hometown was attacked by the Ming army came back, where would the soldiers of the Eight Banners have morale at all? ”

Then ignoring Mang Gurtai, Dai Shan looked at Huang Taiji: "Great Khan, return to the army, let's return one day earlier, and the people of Jianzhou will suffer less losses." Great Khan, the population of our Manchurian Eight Banners is not large, and we can't stand the scourge of the Ming people at all. ”

It is true that he is older, Dai Shan thinks more than Mang Gurtai and the others, and knows what the root of the Dajin Kingdom is. Dai Shan's ability is actually very strong, much stronger than Mang Gurtai, if he hadn't had an affair with his father Nurhachi's concubine and his reputation was discredited, the position of Houjin Khan would not have reached Huang Taiji at all.

Huang Taiji nodded slowly, agreeing with Dai Shan's words, for the sparsely populated Manchurian Eight Banners, talent is fundamental.

Compared with the Ming Kingdom, which has a large land and a large population, the foundation of the Dajin Kingdom is too thin, the Ming Kingdom can lose hundreds of thousands of troops and millions of people, but the Dajin Kingdom cannot afford to lose, after all, all the bannermen of the entire Dajin Kingdom add up to only hundreds of thousands of people with a population of 60,000 or 70,000 bannermen.

"Withdraw, withdraw the troops back to Shenyang!" Huang Taiji said immediately.

"Retreat to Jizhou?" Dai Shan hurriedly asked, did you return from the same way?

Huang Taiji shook his head and said, "What Jizhou to go to!" Go to Yongping Mansion, go out of the border wall from Yongping Mansion!"

"But ......," Dai Shan hesitated.

The city near Jizhou has been emptied, the side walls have been destroyed, and it is easiest to go back from there. Although the border wall from Yongping Mansion is closer to Shenyang, there are many less mountain roads, but Yongping Mansion is garrisoned by Ming troops, and it needs to be captured first.

"Even if you want to retreat, you have to retreat calmly!" Huang Taiji said coldly, "We can get the news of Liaodong, will the Ming Imperial Court not receive it?" The Ming court must be waiting for us to retreat! I am sure that the Ming court must have sent a large number of troops to Jibei, and it may be more difficult to get out of the border wall from Jibei. In this case, why do we have to go the same way, wouldn't it be better to go out of the side wall from Yongping Mansion?

We finally came here, the country was still attacked by the Ming army, the loss must be great, we must bring the looted wealth and grain population back to Liaodong, otherwise how to survive the next days? Therefore, the withdrawal of troops can not be panicked, can not be too eager, and must be prepared to hit the Ming army, once the Ming army dares to chase and kill, it will be broken with the power of thunder!

After arriving at Yongping Mansion, half of the army was sent back to Shenyang to rescue, and the remaining half raided the entire Yongping Mansion, killed, burned, and robbed, and made up for our losses with the population and wealth of Yongping Mansion, and by the way, gave the Ming court a little color! ”

It stands to reason that when he learned that his country was attacked, he would inevitably leave everything behind and return to the division as soon as possible, but Huang Taiji did not do that, because he still held on to the last glimmer of hope that Amin and Derge would be able to block the attacking Ming army.

To tell the truth, there are quite a few bannermen left behind, and if they fight head-on, they are enough to resist 100,000 Ming troops.

Before getting the exact news of Hetuala's attack, if you retreat in a hurry regardless of everything, it is equivalent to a complete failure of this troop strategy, and even if you go back and destroy the attacking Ming army, you will not be able to make up for the loss.

On the contrary, if you can raid Yongping Mansion again, and carry hundreds of thousands of Ming people and a large amount of property back to your hometown, even if you lose some, you can make up for it.

Huang Taiji can calculate the gains and losses.
