While the Jingbei Army was actively preparing to go to Liaodong, Shenyang's slave chieftain Hongtai was also discussing how to deal with the Jinzhou War.

"Master, the Jinzhou battle report shows that the thief Jinzhou city defense is strong, Zu Dashou is ambiguous, while saying that he wants to surrender to us, he also sends a small force to attack the city from time to time, and the Ming army reinforcements are gathered in Ningyuan, although my Baqi Erlang is not afraid of the Ming thieves, but the siege has been around for a long time, the grain and grass have been unable to help, and the king of Ruijun is afraid that the army is unstable, and intends to break the siege and return to the east."

Ye Keshu, the head of the military department, looked at Huang Taiji on the throne cautiously.

Ye Keshu is also a member of the Jurchen tribe of Haixi, the leader of the Nimaca tribe for generations, after the Sarhu, with his father Taisonga led the people to join Nurhachi, the first to be awarded the leader, because of the plundering of Korea and the Ming Dynasty, Huang Taiji took a fancy to him, and was awarded the title of the military department of the Manchengzheng, in fact, it is the military department of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty.

"What do you think of Dolgon's intention to withdraw from the army?"

Huang Taiji was noncommittal, his eyes swept at the Chongzheng Palace, the Manchu princes and ministers in the Dongnuan Pavilion.

"Master, what King Ruijun said is true, since the end of last year, the army besieged Jinzhou, tens of thousands of troops have been under the city for more than half a year, how can the food consumed every day be counted, and the household department is really unable to supply."

Hubu Man Chengzheng Ying Erdai also agreed with Dolgon's proposal to withdraw the army, the northern part of the Ming Dynasty has been suffering from disasters for many years, and the Liaodong is more serious than the Central Plains, and there is no food in the field.

The Manchurians relied entirely on looting and purchasing from merchants in Shanxi in order to have enough food supplies, and as for the Han people under the rule of the Manchus, they were just Nikan lackeys and slaves of the Qing Dynasty.

"Slaves and others seconded it!"

"Master, Jinzhou is there, we can fight at any time, it's better to wait for the summer harvest, the merchants in Shanxi will bring grain, and we won't be too late to fight."

Although Ying Erdai is a person with the White Flag, he is actually a henchman of Huang Taiji like Ye Keshu, and they all support Dolgon, and those princes and nobles naturally echo in unison.

"The state has mobilized so many financial and material resources, and the government treasury is empty, and now it is easy to give up, doesn't this encourage the arrogance of the thief?"

The Minister of the Interior, Aung Bang Zhangjing Turge, was a die-hard confidant of Huang Taiji, and he was well aware of Huang Taiji's intention to use Jinzhou to attract the main force of the Ming army to a decisive battle, so he resolutely disagreed with Dorgon's decision to withdraw his troops.

"Turge is right, although we are short of food, the Ming thieves are also short of food, according to the surrendered Jinzhou Dongguan guard Wu Bashi said, the defenders in Jinzhou City have been reduced to the situation of eating two-legged sheep to cross the sun, that Jiliao Governor Hong Chengchou is able to endure it, I'm afraid he can't withstand the pressure of the Ming court."

Sonny, who had just been promoted to Minister of the Interior, also agreed with Turg's suggestion, and the two sides held each other to this point, depending on who could hold on, but the supply line of the already side was much shorter than that of the Ming army, and it was clear at a glance that the two sides were familiar with the good and the bad.

"What Sony said is that now the main force of the Ming thieves is gathered in Ningyuan, which is a good opportunity for my Qing Dynasty, if this battle is won, then Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan is a smooth road, and the Ming Jingshi is also under the master's feet."

The third-class baron Ao Bai also echoed the opinions of Turg and Sony, and strongly demanded a decisive battle with the main force of the Ming army.

During the Battle of Phi Island, Shen Shikui, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town of the Ming Kingdom, blocked the Manchurian soldiers who came from the ice for three days and three nights with artillery, and even the commander of the Manchurian Qing army, Azige, had the idea of retreating.

At the critical moment, Ao Bai stepped forward, braved the fierce artillery fire of the Ming army, and personally led his troops to set foot on the land of Phi Island, making great contributions to the Manchu Qing Dynasty to solve their worries.

The slave chief Hongtai heard that Phi Island was broken by Aobai after the cry of joy, in personally writing a sacrificial text to pay tribute to the old slave Nurhachi, at the same time, he also added Aobai as a baron, and praised it in public as the first warrior of the Qing Dynasty.

was promoted from an ordinary Niu Lu to a third-class baron, and even entered the Chongzheng Palace to discuss politics, which shows how important Phi Dao is in the heart of Huangtaiji.

"Turg, you mean you're going to have a decisive battle with the Ming army? Although my Eight Banners man is invincible in the world, but Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao on the opposite side, is not easy to deal with, it is said that Gao Yingxiang, the leader of the anti-thieves of the country, was exterminated by it, and now he is hoarding heavy troops in Ningyuan, and as soon as the battle starts, it is a decisive battle, you don't forget that there is a Ming army in Dengzhou, which is across the sea from us, if it takes advantage of my army to attack Jinzhou, sneak attack on southern Liaoning, how do we deal with it? ”

I have to say that although the princes and ministers of the Manchu regime at this moment are fighting fiercely for the interests of power and various banners, they are still very united in dealing with the Ming State, after all, the Ming State is a fragrant bun in their eyes, and every time they attack the Ming State, they will bring them huge returns.

"Yes, Ying Erdai is right, Dengzhou to Lushun is only three or four days of sea route, this king heard that the little Li thief has been committed to the development of the sailor fleet after entering Leiden, according to Jin Shang, the Ming Dynasty emperor specially mobilized fifty large sea ships from Fujian to send to Leiden If my army is westward, Xiao Li thief landed in southern Liaoning, how should we respond."

Prince Li was the head of the four major Baylors, and he and his son Khalchu controlled the two red flags, and his words were important in the Qing court.

"...... this?"

Turge, Sony, Ao Bai and other ministers of the main war are speechless at all, they know their own family affairs, just rely on the Qing Dynasty by the monk Kong Youde and Shang Kexi brought over the sea boats, the water battle is impossible to be the opponent of the Ming army's naval division, if the party and Hong Chengchou have a decisive battle, the Shandong army across the sea, this Liaodong hinterland will not be penetrated by the Ming army?

"Okay, don't fight, Turg, you fought with Xiao Li Thief, and now Xiao Li Thief has troops? How many naval warships are there? What about armament? Do you have any specific information? ”

Huang Taiji opened his mouth slowly, stopped the arguments of the princes and ministers below, and turned his eyes to Turg and Yingordai, who did not approve of the decisive battle.

Knowing that he knows the other and is invincible in a hundred battles, the Qing lord Huang Taiji is not the confused emperor of Chongzhen who was raised in the deep palace and grew up in the hands of women.

In the past 30 years since Wanli went out with the old Nurhachi to conquer the Haixi Jurchens, even after he ascended the throne, Huang Taiji has been fighting in the east and west, except for Mao Wenlong, who nested on Phi Island, Huang Taiji has almost never been defeated.

The war is imminent, so it is natural to understand that the great enemy who shocked the Qing Dynasty lost a prince of Baylor and more than 15,000 Manchu and Han Eight Banner soldiers.

"Master, as far as the minister knows, that little Li thief now has tens of thousands of soldiers, and he has exterminated the Liukou Zhang Xianzhong Department before, more than 100 large warships of the Navy Division, and nearly 200 transport ships of about 200 materials.

Turg has not forgotten the scene of the Jingbei army building the capital on the Hutuo River, he never thought that there would be a military horse after the defeat, and dare to provoke the majesty of the Qing army, so after returning to Shenyang, he has been committed to collecting intelligence on the Jingbei army.
